Fun Run Date- October 1, 2021
The GES "On Your Mark Fun Run" raises funds every year to offer support and show appreciation to our teachers! Our hope is to reach our annual PTO goal of $20,000 with one simple, fun fundraiser.

The funds raised through the Fun Run help the PTO put on school activities like the Back to School Picnic, Movie Night, Bingo Night, and the Sock Hop!
In addition, did you know…..
-that at the start of each school year the PTO gives each teacher a cash gift to help buy needed supplies?
-that when teachers stay late for conferences or events that the PTO caters meals?
-that the PTO uses these funds to make Teacher Appreciation week extra special?
-that the PTO gifts a $500 scholarship to a graduating GES alum?
-that two years ago, the PTO donated Apple TVs to each classroom and also bought several iPads and an iPad cart for students to use?
YOUR SUPPORT MAKES ALL THIS POSSIBLE!

New this year- for every $20 your student raises towards our school goal, their name will be entered into a drawing. When the school reaches our fundraising goal, EVERY student will have their name entered once more! To meet this goal, we are encouraging each student to get at least $40 in donations. Ask your parents, neighbors, grandparents, friends- anyone special in your life who would like to sponsor you and help your school!

Grand Prize: Birthday Party package at Metro Stars Gymnastics
Other prizes: Backyard Playworld Open Gym passes, restaurant gift cards, fidget toys, candy, and more!
