Jog-A-Thon

Last Friday, we completed our annual Jog-A-Thon, and it looks to be the most successful one we have ever had. While final numbers have yet to be tallied, it looks as if we will surpass our school goal of $25,000. The next obvious question is, where will all the money go? Here is our plan.

Right of the bat, we spend roughly $6,000 on software licensing. That should leave us with roughly $20,000. As I mentioned earlier in the year, we want to complete our project of installing computer projectors in the Science/Art lab, as well as the 4-PK classrooms. That should run about $10,000, which leaves us with just enough to remain on target with out technology plan goal of upgrading ten computers in the lab, putting the other ten in the classrooms.

As we all know, when it comes to technology, the money goes very quickly. But if you consider the improvement s this will make with our classrooms, it is well worth it. Our students, your children, will reap great benefits from the funds raised. This is a major component of our goal to have all our students learning in a modern and up-to date classroom.
