The Walk-A-Thon is from 9:10-10:10. We are encouraging all our Tigers to run or walk as many laps around the campus as they can. It will be a festive activity and a great way for our students to make a healthy and positive contribution to our school! The money raised will go toward funding Music, Art, Schmal Science, and other essential programs.
Prizes for levels of participation include:
- All students will receive a snack “prize” (nut free) immediately following the Walk-A-Thon
- $50 raised earns the student a Free Dress Day
- $125 raised earns the student a Golden Tiger Paw for the Student Store
- $250 raised earns the student a $25 Hicklebee’s Gift Certificate
- $500 raised earns the student a $50 Gift Certificate to Willow Glen Creamery
- The 3 classes with the highest student participation (regardless of dollar amount) earn a popsicle party and a $50 Lakeshore gift card for their teacher
- The student that raises the most money earns a $100 Petroglyph Gift Card
