Fundraising Committee Corner

Wow - What an amazing Obstajog Campaign - our school community really stepped up this year! We have made amazing progress over the last three weeks and are excited to add up all the totals over the weekend. A huge thank you to all who supported their students with their fundraising ideas and who personally gave to help us reach our goal. If you haven’t yet supported the campaign, we are still collecting donations through Monday, October 14th to support the student and classroom participation goals.

If your student forgot to bring in their envelope to school on Friday, PLEASE make sure it makes it to the front office on Monday, October 14th so we can count it towards student and classroom participation totals.

Please join us on Friday (October 11), after school from 4-7pm in the school gym for some extra time to run the course (and maybe race your kids?)! We will have food trucks and great company - Don’t miss it!

Finally - a HUGE thank you to this year’s Obstajog Sponsors: Grandview Tire & Auto and TrailHead Planners. Please consider frequenting these businesses or reaching out to thank them for supporting ISLA.
