Eagle Run Fundraiser

This is our one big fundraiser of the year—and we need everyone’s help so our children can SOAR all year long!Register Your Student 2026 Eagle RunThe Eagle Run is a fun, high-energy fundraiser where students run laps around the school’s bus loop to support PTO programs all year long! Each grade has a scheduled run time, and classes burst out to festive decorations, signs from our community sponsors, chalk art, and bubbles. Kids run for 15–20 minutes, earning a band for every lap—more bands, more bragging rights! 🎉

Here’s how your contribution makes a difference: 📚 Teacher Resources: Annual classroom budgets allow teachers to request unfunded classroom supplies, reviewed and approved by the PTO at monthly board meetings. 🎓 Student Enrichment: Programs like Battle of the Books, Cultural Festival, and the Science Fair inspire curiosity and creativity. 🚌 Field Trips for All: PTO funds cover the annual field trip costs so every student can participate—no one misses out on the joy of discovery. 📸 Picture Day & Yearbook: The PTO manages the Yearbook creation, including capturing photos throughout the year and compiling the photos/pages. We also support Picture Day. 🐾 Student Environment: Meet Diego, our school comfort dog—funded by donations and loved by all. 🎉 Family Fun & Engagement: Events like School Dances, Movie Nights, Field Day, Donuts with Grown-Ups, and Trunk-or-Treat bring families together. 🍽️ Teacher Well-Being: We support our educators with conference-night dinners and Teacher Appreciation Week treats. 🌷 School Beautification: Think the city keeps our school looking great? Nope! It’s the PTO Nest Keepers who roll up their sleeves to handle landscaping, flowers, bushes, trees—everything that makes our school grounds welcoming, safe, and beautiful for your kids.
