Ed White Families-

​

Welcome Back! We are so thankful that this new year is upon us and we are hopeful for the year ahead!

In the spirit of moving forward, we are bringing our largest fundraiser back in the Fall, as we have done in previous years.

​

We have always enjoyed running in the fall to support our school, raise funds for our PTO sponsored events, let the students and staff enjoy the track on a fall day and to kick off our year in a fun and positive way!

​

-Please continue to look to our Facebook page (Ed White PTO), weekly newsletters from our principal, info from your teachers and feel free to message us at edwhitepto@gmail.com as many details emerge leading up to the race.

​

-BOOKMARK: Our website is edwhitepta.com and houses all of the information you need for tshirt sales, class colors, run times, donations, FAQs, etc

​

Important Info:

-Who: All Ed White students and staff (Kindergarten-6th grade)

    

-What: Students and staff walk, run, jump, skip and dance around the high school track to DJ played tunes for an hour as they see how many laps they can complete.

*Spectators can take to the track to celebrate with their student(s)! We encourage all of you to hit the track and dance along! 

*Lap Cards are back! Home Room Parents and Volunteers will be needed to help keep track of how many laps the kids run around the track. Lap cards will go home with a QR code this year so it makes it easier to turn in donation money. 

*Also returning is AWARDS. Fundraising awards as well as our SPIRIT AWARDS! We encourage each class to prepare a theme and encourage your students to dress up and have fun with it!

​

-Our Why: Money raised by this fundraiser helps pay for field trip experiences, grants, visiting artists, providing teachers with funds for their classrooms, Breakfast with a Buddy events (one in November and one in May), among other experiences. 

​

-DONATIONS: The PTO's goal is to never have you participate in more than one large fundraiser per year, so I ask each family to donate to their child(ren’s) run and utilize donations from family members, friends, co-workers etc. We also encourage those of you working for companies that will match donated funds, to please inquire. Thank you in advance!

​

-TSHIRTS: These are always a hit with the students as each classroom has its own color so teachers can easily identify the students in their classrooms.  Students will wear these on the day of the race and also for field trips and class outings. 

​

​

Please let us know if you have any questions or concerns and we look forward to seeing you on the track on SEPTEMBER 29th!!!
