Gorrie Walk-A-Thon November 13^th

When: Friday, November 13, 2015, 8:00am-10:15am

Where: Gorrie Elementary

What:  A Walk-a-thon to raise funds for our school. The event will take place at school, during regular school hours. Please come and cheer on our amazing students and teachers as they walk the perimeter of our school.

Why: This event benefits Gorrie Elementary School by providing funds for resources such as teacher training, events, technology and facility improvements, class programs and many other items to continuously improve the learning experience for our children.

This year, the funds being raised will be used to support our teachers through classroom grants for continuing education workshops and seminars, science projects, writing aids, and supplemental materials not provided by the county that our teachers believe will make a difference in learning in our classrooms. A portion of the funds will also supplement the art and music department, ongoing maintenance, repair and replacement of visual aid equipment in every classroom, and our Gorrie Cares service projects which allows our students to give back to the community. For a list of how last year's Gorrie PTA funds were used, click here.

End of the year sign up!

We are off to a great start for this school year. This year will fly by with all of the fun activities and academic contentwe have in store for your children. We have tons planned for this year, but we can't do this alone. We need your help. Instead of having one parent be the overall 5th grade parent leader, we are dividing out the responsibilities and we are looking for some parents to chair the end of the year activities. Please take a moment to review the activities and consider giving your time and help. We would greatly appreciate it. Below, you will find a link to sign up for end of the year activities for our 5th grade students! For each activity, there is a teacher coordinator that you can reach out to for questions/ details of the events. Thanks in advance!!
