First Grade Walk-a-thon
Pledge sheets for our Walk-a-thon were sent home in your child's folder today!
On Friday Sept. 29th, all first graders will complete as many laps as they can on the track to raise money for Fundacao Dorina Nowill, a foundation that helps the blind by publishing and distributing books in braille.
Before the walk-a-thon begins, students need to get pledges from friends and family members who will sponsor them for a certain amount of money per lap. (Most students should complete between 5 to 10 laps.) All money raised will go towards supporting Fundacao Dorina Nowill. Please help your child get pledges. Every first grader will participate even if they are unable to get pledges. Parents are invited to come and cheer us on or walk along with us on Sept 29th at 9:15 am on the track.
Please let us know if you have any questions. Pledge forms are due on or before the morning of Sept 29th. Then they will be tallied and returned to the students that day so they can immediately start collecting their pledges. Students will have a week to collect and bring in the money.
Thank you for your support,
The first grade team
