RaiseRight Fundraiser
Next week we will kick-off the RaiseRight fundraising program for the 2026 - 2027 school year. All families are encouraged to get involved and help support our school.
What is RaiseRight ?: A program that helps schools raise funding in support of improvement projects, facility upgrades, school programs and resources. 100’s of partnered businesses donate a percentage of your purchase to your school. Enrolled members can fund raise in a variety of ways:
• Purchase gift cards
• Online shopping
• Buy reloadable gas/coffee/grocery cards
• Travel/vacation planning
• Local restaurants
Why participate?: This is a great way to passively raise funds for your school. 10% of what you earn goes directly to your family's Gradelink account to use towards expenses or other school related fees. Purchases made during RaiseRight bonus days can double donations to your school and your account.
Please be on the lookout for the RaiseRight enrollment code and further details. Families will receive an email with additional information and students will bring home a letter and flyer.
Fundraising with Freddy’s
On Thursday, October 8th from 4-8pm, Freddy’s restaurant will hold a fundraiser to support OUR school! During this fundraiser, our school will receive 20% of sales by ordering digitally or at the Freddy’s restaurant located at 4825 Ramsey Street in Fayetteville.
To participate digitally, order on the Freddy's mobile app or website using the code GIVEBACK. To participate at the restaurant, tell the cashier of your participation (before payment) or show the fundraiser flyer below to the cashier (before payment). Flyers will be sent home with students on the day of the event.
Save the Date
The Fall Festival is scheduled for Friday, October 23rd. More information will be provided to families as we get closer to the date.
Parent/Teacher Conferences
Parent/Teacher Conferences will be held on the afternoon of Thursday, October 29th and on Friday, October 30th. More information will be sent home with students in the next couple of weeks. Students will dismiss early at 11:30am on Thursday, October 29th. Students will NOT be served lunch before dismissing. Aftercare will be available. Any student who attends Aftercare must bring a packed lunch from home. There will be NO school for students on Friday, October 30th.
Socktober
October 5-9, we will be collecting new socks to donate to Catholic Charities. Socks are one of the most-needed items for individuals and families in need, and this is a simple way for our students to make a meaningful difference in our community.
To add a little friendly competition, we’re having a Socktober Class Challenge! The class that collects the highest percentage of socks per student will win a pizza party!
Students may bring in new socks of any size—children, women, or men. Every pair helps!
