We want to thank all the families who have already participated in our SchoolStore fundraiser! We are on our way to reaching our goal, but we need everyone's help! The money raised from the fundraiser will be used to purchase incentives, rewards, supplies, and activities for students and staff.
If your family has not participated, there's still time!
This safe and easy fundraiser is 100% online so there is no face-to-face selling, collecting money, or delivering products. Your child will receive a prize just for participating, and more prizes will be awarded when goals are reached.
Please help now. It really will make a difference.
Go to https://www.schoolstore.net/sid.t?0000196709 to show our valued teachers your support.
Thanks
Anna Jarvis Elementary School
P.S. Family participation is the key to our success, and we are counting on you!
