What We've Been Up To...

Bounce a-palooza was a success!

Thank you to all who volunteered at this year's Bounce a-palooza! The kids had a blast bouncing and jumping on Friday. Fundraising closes October 4th, so let's do a big push this week to reach our goal of $50,000!

School-Wide Fundraiser

Merton Fall Fundraiser

Only one week left for our school-wide fundraiser, and we are about $10,000 short of our goal! Right now, students are gathering donations from friends and family to earn incentives and win challenges. Many classes have won an ice cream party already (and anticipating more this week), and we are looking for volunteers to help serve those days. If you are available, please sign-up here.

DATES TO KNOW

Fundraising: September 16 - October 4

Ice Cream Party: Wed, Sept. 30-Fri, Oct 2
