Box Tops for Education

COLLECT BOX TOPS

Did you know that every BOXTOP and every COKE CAP collected earns money for our school?   This summer we would like you to work hard to collect both. The money we earn will go toward a basketball hoop on our K/1 playground!

 

BOXTOPS:  Every completed BOXTOP sheet is worth $5.00.  If every child from Georgetown (approx 570) fills  one sheet this summer, our school will earn $2,750.   Many thanks to Lori Simpson and all of you who are on her team of BOX TOP counters, trimmers and packers.  This is a great program that pays off because of all of YOU!

Our LAST chance to go GAGA!!!

Hi Parents!

This is our last chance to get first dibs on the Gaga Pit!
Remember, the class donating the most money gets to use the Gaga Pit first 🙂
Thank you to those who have already donated to another constructive game for kids to play during recess!  I’ve never played Gaga Ball, but my son and many of the students in our classroom say it’s a blast!!  I know that other elementary schools in the district have Gaga Pits and from what I understand, there are always many kids waiting in line to play!!
Don’t forget, that as members of the community who live close to school, you’ll also be able to play after school hours!!
Thanks for your help 🙂

 

Going Gaga!

A youtube video showing the game of gaga is here. 

We would like to ask for your support with a Physical Education WISH.  Our playground has space to accommodate a GAGA BALL PIT—and we’d love to have a pit added to our green space.   


The game of GAGA is high paced, high energy and high fun.  It combines the skills of dodging, running, jumping and eye/hand/body coordination.  The addition of a GAGA PIT on our playground would benefit:

  • PE:  Support our instructional skills.

  • Recess: Provide another activity for children on the 2-5 playground.

  • Community:  Available for after hours use for family, friends and community members.


Our PTC has donated partial funding from the Fall WALK•A•THON earnings.  We believe we can cover the total cost through a special three week fundraiser.


GOAL:  Donate $1.00 per child.


INCENTIVE:  Class that raises the most $$ will be first to use the GAGA PIT once it is assembled.


FUNDRAISER DATES:  January 12-23.  A weekly update on the winners will be posted.

 

Send your GAGA DOLLARS to school so we can have a Georgetown Gaga Pit!

ROCK THE WALK!! Fundraiser :)

Greetings parents and students and welcome to the 2014-2015 school year! We have officially kicked-off our 2014 ROCK THE WALK, which is our primary fundraiser for the year. Our goal is to have all students participate and for each to strive for a personal goal of raising at least $25 to support their school! This is the ONLY Parent Club Fundraiser of the year. All money raised goes toward funding family activities, school activities and books/materials for the library and classrooms.

The Walk is SEPTEMBER 25 between 9:30 and 11:30.
◾9:45 PK & Kindergarten
◾10:00 Grade 3
◾10:10 Grade 1
◾10:20 Grade 2
◾10:30 Grade 4
◾10:35 Grade 5

Here are some ways you can add some fun on the day of the walk-a-thon:
◾Wear blue, gold and Eagle spirit wear
◾Dress up like your favorite Rock Star
◾Accessorize with socks, bandanas, beads and hats

To make participation easy for everyone, we are holding the event during the school day, where students can walk, jog or run around the course. All participants will receive a special treat at the end of the event: A cool blue flashlight.

We love to have volunteers to pass out water during the walk (9:30-11:00) please contact Amanda Impens at 616-443-3814 or amandabeaimpens@yahoo.com
