RULES:

• Masks must be worn at all times.

• Students must maintain a safe distance from other runners.

Jan. 24, 2022 - Children Take the Lead in Our TPESF Jog-A-Thon!

Feb. 16 is the date of our Jog-A-Thon, a fun event that gets our kids outside and earns pledges to support our beloved school programs! This year it will take place during the school day. Students will walk or run at staggered times so as not to mix stable groups.

Please check your child's folder for a packet that contains website set-up instructions and a description of prizes your child(ren) can win for participating.

This year’s goal is $25,000. We can do it together!

Join us at https://jogathon2022.givesmart.com!

Each week, students have a chance to win prizes as individual fundraisers and in classwide competitions. The class that raises the most funds wins a donut party!

Every Friday leading up to the Jog-A-Thon, we will have a table outside of school at pick-up or drop-off where students can pick up their individual prizes. All classroom-won prizes will be distributed by the teachers in class. Anyone unable to pick up their individual prizes, no problem! Reach out directly to jogathon@tpesfoundation.org, and we will help.

BECOME A CHAMPION! Please support the students’ efforts by helping them register and setting up their fundraising webpages, in addition to helping them seek out pledges from family and friends. All money raised goes directly towards programs not fully supported by the School District, including Visual and Performing Arts, Garden, Recess Sports Enrichment, class-size reduction, and so much more.

We Need Volunteers!

Be on the lookout for volunteer opportunities! We need volunteers onsite from each grade level that day to assist with the event. Please register as soon as possible as a volunteer so the school office has enough time to clear your application (download the form to apply here, and submit your application here). We need volunteers’ help to make this a success!

Questions? Contact the Jog-A-Thon team at jogathon@tpesfoundation.org.
