The McDonald Home and School Association is proud to announce our inaugural Read-A-Thon, taking place from February 11 - 25! This is our largest, most ambitious fundraiser ever! It plays an important role in supporting our students while encouraging a love of reading, with multiple ways to earn prizes!

Funds raised during this event will help us make field trips free for all students, provide valuable ancillary services that support learning and enrichment, bring in assemblies, special programs, and school-wide events, and create opportunities that benefit all children!

Our fundraising path includes special prizes, including an awesome raffle basket that includes an Amazon Fire HD 10, a $50 Scholastic Book Fair voucher, and more surprises to be revealed along the way! For each $25 raised, your student will earn one additional raffle ticket, with a bonus entry for reaching $100 raises. (Please see flyer for more details!)

The student who raises the most funds will receive the ultimate award and become — PRINCIPAL FOR A DAY! What ideas do you have to help change the school!

In addition, the class that shows the best teamwork and raises the most funds will receive a PIZZA PARTY!

Our goal is to make this Read-A-Thon positive, inclusive, and meaningful. Together, we can continue to provide awesome, enriching experiences for our entire school and community!
