Boosterthon News

Paine Intermediate is gearing up for our Boosterthon Fun Run.  Typically, fundraisers are dreaded, but the Boosterthon Fun Run has proven to be a fun experience for our school.  Through Boosterthon and our committed parents, we are able to raise much needed funds.  This year, we are setting aside our profits from Boosterthon to expand our gardens that were started by our GaTE teachers a couple of years ago.  We want all of our students to experience planning, planting, and cultivating a garden.  The space can also be used as an outdoor classroom for reading and writing activities.

This year we will kick off Boosterthon on Tuesday, April 1.  We will finish up with our Fun Run on Friday, April 11 at Faith Community Church.  We need your support and ask that you help us reach our goal of raising money for our project.  

Fun Run Times:
Fifth Grade           9:00-10:00
Fourth Grade     10:30-11:30
Third Grade         1:00-2:00
