Bulldog Blitz 2023

Monday, Sept 19th kicks off our 6th Annual Bulldog Blitz Fundraiser! Your student will be coming home with a manila envelope Friday (9/15). This envelope is where you will put any donations that you wish to contribute to our fundraiser. I will collect the envelope each morning for students that have brought donations in, then we will exchange all donations for tickets for your student to shop at the Bulldog Blitz store with. 

One exciting part of our Bulldog Blitz is that we have classroom awards for different amounts our class earns. Homeroom teachers will share each day how close we are to getting our awards!

This year our Bulldog Blitz proceeds will be updating our Library to include more collaborative space and mobile shelving to allow for more classes to come together to utilize the Library for collaboration. Much of the money raised additionally goes towards student activities, materials, and events we do with our students. We call this ‘YES! Money.’ 

We appreciate any and all contributions you make! Every dollar builds our opportunities for our students!

Homeroom teachers will send you updates regularly to share how our class is doing towards our goal. We have come up with classroom prizes that our students are earning towards too! 

It’s going to be a great fundraiser! Thank you!
