Walk4Greene is General Greene’s biggest fundraiser of the year, and we have great news! There is no candy, wrapping paper, or cookie dough to buy and deliver. Every dollar collected goes directly to General Greene – there is no middle man. The PTA uses the money that is raised to purchase critical learning materials for our school, such as smart projectors and microphones for classrooms, media center materials, kits for the science lab, new and updated technology for the tech lab, and many other necessities to support learning. The items that we fund are not covered by the county’s budget for our schools, so we step in to supplement in these critical areas for our children’s learning and educational success. But we cannot do this alone, WE NEED YOU, our Gator families, to support us in these efforts. This year our goal is to raise $25,000!!
Walk day is scheduled for Friday, November 1st and it is a lot of fun for the students - everyone participates! Parents and volunteers mark off the number of laps each child completes, which turns into a friendly competition among the students. Your contributions will earn fun prizes for the kids, such as classroom rewards, t-shirts, and even the opportunity to "pie" a teacher!
