Who were the winners in Walk-a-thon 2021?

The students and staff at Georgetown Elementary won!  Over $30,000 was raised to help cover costs for classroom supplies, technology upgrades, storage solutions, books, field trips, parent/child events and other needed items for each class. So, we all win!  Thank you students, parents, relatives, friends, and neighbors…your donations will make a HUGE difference at Georgetown!

Also, our class was recognized for having the highest participation of students to raise money for the walk-a-thon! As a result, we are looking forward to spending a $50 Amazon gift card on special things for our classroom AND enjoying donuts from Sprinkles! 🙂 

Finally, we finished third for total amount of money raised by a class! We were able to collect over $2,200 in donations! So, each person will receive a pedometer!

What an amazing walk-a-thon! Thanks again for all you did to help this event to be a HUGE success!
