Good Afternoon NAMS Families,
Our NAMS Challenge Fundraiser event today was amazing! Thank you to all of our volunteers who made this an awesome experience for our students.
We had a school-wide challenge to hit a goal of $35,000 to to support staff reimbursement requests, staff appreciation events, school enrichment programs, student activities and trips (evening events, field trips, and end-of-year activities), & school needs (i.e. courtyard seating, recess supplies, and various school needs). To see if we can still get there, our fundraising platform, MyBooster.com, will remain open for one more week! We are at $31,000 so we are almost there!
Today’s event was so much fun! I feel so blessed to work with such amazing kids who practice our RAISE values. Seeing each of the teams form Conga Lines that included everyone might have been my favorite part. Another highlight was when the 6th grade erupted when Austin was selected as the student to Pie Alex (aka Tacos) in the face too!
TEACHER CHALLENGE – The first TWO teachers whose class makes it to 90% sign-up will receive a $10 coffee gift card!
Final Standings:
- Van Horn - 100%! - First Place Secured!
- Lawrence - 95%! - Second Place Secured!
GIVEAWAY PRIZE – The Grand Prize of a Nintendo Switch was won by Alex Worden. Congratulations!
Thank you to all our families who have been working hard to raise funds for our school. We truly appreciate your support!
Please continue to register and support our Fundraiser that has been extended for another week.
