Move-a-Thon
Our awesome Otters have a BIG fundraising goal this year, $18,500. That is a big number but with your help, our kids can exceed it! Please be sure to focus your fundraising efforts on family, friends, neighbors, parents’ co-workers, and businesses. We are not having a fundraising auction this year so we really need to dig deep and increase our fundraising/donation efforts for Move-a-Thon.
Parents – do you have a connection to a sporty or active business? We’ll gladly accept additional prize donations for the kids. Anything that gets the kids active and moving is a perfect donation.
Additional information packets, tax receipts, and sponsor sheets are available at school or upon request.
If you have any questions about the Move-a-Thon or are available to help out at the event, please contact Shannon Malloch shannonmmalloch@gmail.com. My email was incorrect in the last newsletter. If you emailed me and didn’t get a response, please contact me again at the correct email address listed above. Go Otters!

PTA Membership Drive
Please help us meet our goal of 180 members this year!
The strength of our PTA lies in its membership – the parents, teachers, school administrators, business leaders and community members who devote themselves to making a positive difference in the lives of children.
Return your membership application and $12 dues (scholarships available) before November 3rd and attend either the 10/20 or 11/17 General PTA Meeting to have your name added.
