Boosterthon

We are excited to have Boosterthon for a sixth year. Boosterthon is a different kind of fundraiser. While still raising money for our school, the Boosterthon team is in our school teaching our children about fitness, character and leadership. It’s a WIN–WIN! It all kicks off with pep rallies on Wednesday, March 1st at 8:30 and 9:30 am. Please plan to join us for the Fun Runs on Friday, March 10th. The schedule is as follows: 8:30 (K5, 1st, & Irick), 9:35 (2nd, 3rd, PMA, & Poole), and 10:50 (4th, 5th, & IMA). We ask for your help in making this another successful year for our students with the Boosterthon Fun Run!

Greenville Drive Reading All-Stars

The Greenville Drive Reading All-Stars program is a reading incentive program aimed at promoting reading and academic success.  Any 2^nd – 5^th grade student can participate by reading 5 books in 5 weeks.  Complete the reading log sent home on Friday, February 10^th and return to school by March 21^st.  You will receive a ticket to the Greenville Drive baseball game on April 24^th.  We hope everyone will participate!
