Dog dash is our biggest fundraiser for the PSG of the year. The kids get pledges💸 from friends, family, and neighbors for a week, then run 🏃♀️ an obstacle course outside during school. We don’t officially count laps, but they get to have fun and parents can cheer from the sidelines. Then we celebrate all of the money that was raised after we count it all up, and recognize the contributions!!
September 26 we will be hosting Dog Dash! Come back here for more information soon!
Your donation makes a real difference in the education of each kid.
The teachers and the school really need important equipment and supplies!
Now that Indiana does not collect book fees at the beginning of the year, it has affected the budget and the school’s ability to buy things they used to in the past. The PSG can meet that gap and help provide support. 📖
Consider donating generously to help our teachers get curriculum workbooks, refill the recess carts with plenty of balls for outside, provide the school with social events like parties, grants for specific teachers and their needs, and teacher appreciation meals and coffee!
In the past, grants to provide instruments,🪈 art materials, 🎨 gym mats, and dodgeballs have been given to our Specials teachers whose budgets have been especially cut over the years. Did you know that 6 dodgeballs cost around $100? And gymnastic mats can be $600 or more? Everything adds up fast, and is used daily by hundreds of students. We are so proud to be able to assist the school in purchasing these items that enrich learning.
The library is in dire need of more books to help the kids with ⚔️Book Battles🤺 and Hoosier Reader goals. With inflation, their existing budgets aren’t stretching as far and they cannot purchase as many books as they could in the past. We’ve never seen our kids more motivated to read until they participated in “Book Battles”. Let's encourage this momentum with MORE books!! 📚
Just a couple weeks ago, two (old) microwaves broke in the staff lounge, and we were able to replace them with shiny new working ones!

Dog Dash money makes a difference when there are random needs for the entire school!!
