Started with only 5th grade parents. We still have luncheon so we don’t want to put out too many sign ups and ask too much from our community Budget: ❖ We have already gone over our budget by $1,800 for our year. There are some pending items- check requests ❖ We still have some pending amounts with Teacher appreciation appx. $200, Kinder Graduation appx. $300, 5th gr. Graduation appx. $1,200, Campout appx. $? ❖ May have to spend another $1,500/$1,700. ❖ Try to continue campout with low cost ❖ We have about $86,000 in account now. ❖ Any amount that is spent this year will be counted next year. ❖ Overflow amount each year. We need to have a carryover amount of $15,000 for the next school year. ❖ We have a Hawk Run every other year and try to raise +$30,000 each run. It’s a lot to ask for our community to raise $30,000 each year. ❖ We try and have a budget amount of $20,000 for every school year. A realistic amount could be up to $25,000. ❖ Fall Festival, Dine Outs, Digital Fundraiser-Scrip, Box Tops, Amazon Smile- will help out to raise more money for our school. Silent Auction up to a greater scale in the MPR room and once we get back on campus. Spirit-wear can also be a good way to bring in money as well. Voting Items: 1.
