Month: September 2022

We are well on our way to meeting our goal of $60,000 with a little over a month to go. This is the one time of year that we make an ask of every member of our school community. The funds raised during this time will contribute to the following uses:

• Create a student hardship fund that supports students with financial need with things like purchasing standard school attire as well as helps ensure all SPE students can participate in field trips, the book fair, etc. This way everyone feels like they belong at SPE regardless of their financial background.
• Do some basic classroom enhancements that support our kids’ education. For example, the kindergarten teachers really need a color printer!
• Lastly, we want to fund some more exciting student experiences for every student that would expose them to fun things. For example, going to the Nashville Symphony or even bringing them to us!

August 26^th marked the beginning of our annual Fun Run fundraising period. At the end of our campaign period, all kids will participate in a walk/run during recess and have a party to celebrate the conclusion of the fundraising event. Students will also receive a free Fun Run t-shirt to wear the day of the race that can be worn as SSA (standard school attire) throughout the year!

Thank you for the great turnout at Grandparents & Granola! We loved seeing everyone there supporting our students!

Thank you to all those who have donated to our Fun Run campaign so far! We have a large goal of raising $60,000 this year to support Sylvan Park Elementary, and every bit helps. This week we will award the first popsicle parties to the classrooms in each grade that raise the most money. If you’d like your child’s class to win a popsicle party, donate today at www.sylvanparkschool.org/donate!
