FUNDRAISING

The PTA helps our school purchase assemblies, field trips, academic and social enrichment, as well as materials that are not in the school budget. This year we are also raising money for a makerspace and improvements to our library.

 

How it's done...

Teachers, families and local businesses work together to accomplish these goals by:

  • Donating online
  • Scanning receipts for Box Tops for Education
  • Donating to our Jog-a-thon
  • Purchasing items from our Silent Auction. 
  • Purchasing gift cards from our Raise Right program.

 

Thanks for all you do to make our school great!

ALL YEAR | BOX TOPS                                                     

 

HOW TO EARN - BOX TOPS MAKES IT EASY.

No more clipping. No more sending Box Tops to school. All you need is your phone. Download the ALL-NEW Box Tops app, shop as you normally would, then simply scan your store receipts to find participating products. The app will automatically credit Monroe's Box Tops earnings online.


Twice a year, we will receive a check and can use that cash to buy whatever Monroe needs!

 

NOTE: We will continue to accept clipped Box Tops until their expiration date and can even receive double credit for these if the receipt is also scanned!

 
Imagine what one child could do...
1 Box Top per Month X 10 months = $1.00
5 Box Tops per Month X 10 months = $5.00
10 Box Tops per Month X 10 months = $10.00
 
Imagine what our school could do...
$1.00 X 600 students = $600
$5.00 X 600 students = $3,000
$10.00 X 600 students = $6,000
 
In 2019-20, we raised about $600. In 2020-21 we raised $164.60. In 2022-23 we raised $25. The most we’ve raised in the past is $1,986 and we’d love to reach our goal of $100 this year!

Original Works Art keepsakes

Monroe Elementary PTA offers an art-based fundraising program at our school. Families have the opportunity to purchase a variety of products featuring children's special creations!

DEC 9-13 | WInter wonderland Holiday shop

The Winter Wonderland Holiday Shop is a favorite among the students at Monroe. Well priced gift items are available for purchase during selected times during the school day.  Students visit the shop with their class to make a wish list of items they'd like to purchase for family and friends. Then, they return with money to spend at the shop. Items are gift wrapped and labeled for your child to easily place under the tree at home. 

 

Chairperson: Roxanne Ensling & Jennifer Tokaji

MaY 2 | AUCTION & Carnival

 

The Auction and Carnival is one of our biggest fundraisers each year! Community members rally together to show support for our school. PTA members solicit donations from local businesses, each class creates a themed basket to put up for bidding, Monroe families donate items, and staff members create special experiences for students to purchase. The auction runs at the same time as the Carnival with food, entertainment, inflatables, carnival games and much more! It is a fun-filled event that you won't want to miss!
