Each year Student Council selects a worthy charity to support as part of our mission to be civically engaged and give back to our local community. This year, Student Council is partnering with the Community Events Committee (CEC) to support the Boys and Girls Club, an organization that supports school-age children to succeed in school, develop good character and citizenship, and live healthy lives.
Charity Week will kick off on Monday, March 6, when t-shirts will be handed out. ALL students can participate in fun, themed dress up days all week, and we’ll close out the week with Middle School Dodgeball for Dollars on Friday, March 10. It will be a fun week for everyone, with the two biggest fundraisers for Charity Week being Dodgeball for Dollars and sales of the Charity Week 2023 t-shirt.
Order Your t-shirt Today! T-shirts are available in MySchoolBucks through 2 p.m. Friday, Feb. 24. Unfortunately, we cannot accept late orders. Elementary and middle school students may wear the shirt to school with uniform bottoms starting Charity Week through the end of the school year. Next year, students may wear the shirt on Spirit Days. The cost of the t-shirt is $20. All proceeds, less the cost of printing the shirts, will go to the Boys and Girls Club. The winner of the t-shirt design contest (pictured here) is seventh grader Olivia Emanuel! Congratulations, Olivia!
Middle School Dodgeball for Dollars – Dodgeball for Dollars will be held from approximately 8:30 a.m. – 3:20 p.m. on Friday, March 10, in the Thunder gym. Students should bring their own lunch, and lunch will be held from noon – 1 p.m. Middle School students can sign up to play through MySchoolBucks for $5 per player, per team. Kids can be on multiple teams, but they need to choose a primary team in case both their teams play each other. For your convenience, if your student decides to play for a team (or an additional team) the day of the event, we will invoice you through MySchoolBucks. Students who do not want to participate will go to a designated classroom for study hall.
Thanks for supporting Charity Week!
