Walnut Grove has two main fundraising events this year:
During the online registration process, you have the opportunity to contribute to our Dollar-a-Day annual campaign. Our suggested donation is a dollar for each of the 180 days in the school year — that is, $180 per student or $250 per family if you have multiple students at Walnut Grove. If you would like to make a Dollar-a-Day donation, you can contribute online.
The annual Fun Run is a wonderful community-building event that encourages Walnut Grove students to be active while supporting our school. Students are encouraged to obtain pledges for each lap they run to raise money for the school. Fun Run is typically organized in the month of September. Parent volunteers join Mr. Taylor (one of our amazing Walnut Grove PE teachers and our MC for the event) in decorating the school grounds with colorful flags and balloons to set the tone for the day. On the day of the event, we crank up the volume of the music and party! Parents, siblings, grandparents, and friends come out for the day and cheer on the students.
The Fun Run is a great way to come together and mingle with old friends and new, while raising money for Walnut Grove. It stands out as a highlight of every school year! |
