The PTA is kicking-off our 2024 Fun Run Turkey Trot Fundraiser!
As we welcome the season of giving this November, we’re excited to kick off an opportunity for our students to support each other and our school community! The Turkey Trot fundraiser will run now through Friday, November 29. On November 21, before the Thanksgiving luncheon, students will have the chance to run as many laps as they can. This is not only a chance to stay active but also to reflect on what they’re grateful for, all while raising funds that will directly benefit our school and students.
The proceeds from this event will help fund amazing initiatives, including field trips, classroom libraries, a new school sign (a long-term goal we can all be excited about) and future Bush Hill community activities.
We need your help to achieve our $5,000 goal and make this Turkey Trot a huge success!
Classes with the most funds raised and most laps will receive prizes!
1st Place - Pizza Party
2nd Place - Dance Party
3rd Place - Extra Recess
When we achieve our school-wide goal of $5,000 raised, we will have a fun SURPRISE!!

The Reflections theme for 2024-2025 is “Accepting Imperfections.”
