SCHOOL-WIDE prizes EARNED SO FAR!

First the $5,000 mark was reached! Students earned reading time outside with their buddy classes! It was a beach party with books!

Then the $15,000 mark was reached! Students had a great time eating their lunches with Schroeder's mascot Drake the Dragon! All the students received a vinyl Schroeder water bottle sticker, a game card from Escape, and a Duck Donuts gift cerificate!

We are in full swing gearing up for another amazing Jogathon! Please remember, this is our only fundraiser of the year and the PTO is hoping that each child donates $60 or more if possible.

Other school-wide prize goals are still possible! When we make the $25,000 mark, students will get to pick their own seat in the cafeteria. Collecting $35,000 earns students a popcorn/movie/pajama party! And the GRAND PRIZE, never before in Schroeder history for collecting $40,000, students will duct tape Mrs. Keegan to the cafeteria wall during a school-wide assembly!

Remember! The class that raises the most money gets the gymnasium named after them for the rest of the year!
