Dear Runnymede Families,
Tomorrow is the final day of our Annual Direct Donation Campaign — and we’ve reached 63% of our $50,000 goal. Thank you to everyone who has already contributed!
If your family hasn’t had a chance to donate yet, now is the time. Over the next couple of weeks, our Home & School Association committees will be finalizing budgets for this year’s programs and initiatives. The funds we raise this week will determine what we are able to plan, and when we can get started!
Every dollar helps bring enrichment programs like science workshops, art performances, and field trips to life for all Runnymede students. We are hoping for 100% participation from all Runnymede families, in any amount that you feel comfortable with. Together we can make a difference in our children’s education and enrichment!
