Read-A-Thon: Read Around The Universe!
Stocklmeir's Read-A-Thon is back! This fundraiser is a simple and fun way to contribute. Most of all, it helps to develop healthy reading habits! Help us meet our Read-A-Thon goal of $20,000! Please consider donating on behalf of your student and inviting family members and friends to donate as well. This year, our Read-A-Thon is in person but no paper logs to turn in. Read, keep track of your minutes, report your minutes using our new Google Form and donate online through PayPal. It is that easy!
Now more than ever, our Stocklmeir community needs your support to keep our beloved programs. Part of the $150,500 annual operating budget counts on $10,000 being raised by the Read-A-Thon event. Your Read-A-Thon donations support the PTA. The money raised will help maintain all the PTA-supported programs such as CSMA (Art & Music), instructional aides (grades 3-5), Project Cornerstone and much more. We are truly grateful for any donations raised during this event. Thank you for being a part of this year’s Fun-raiser!
