Salamander Stride 2024 - What a Success!

The Salamander Stride was a huge success, THANK YOU to everyone who contributed their time, effort and support to reach our goal and beyond!

Salamanders, you really stepped up this year and our hearts are full! We have funded the full PTA budget for the year and will look to add more opportunities to continue to make Sligo Creek a great community and place to learn. We had a goal to raise $38,000 for the Salamander Stride, to build upon the success of last year's event and YOU DID IT! You helped us to break a record again as we're on our way to raising nearly $45,000!!! 

Thank you to everyone for pitching in! The funding will benefit every class and every student over the year!

Also, a HUGE shout out to all the volunteers who helped at the Stride and leading up to the event. We clocked in over 80 volunteers - an amazing effort by our community, who pitched in to not only reach our goal, but to help us build community through the event itself. Thank you! 

Here are the prize winners (and some great photos - check out the link!) for this year's Salamander Stride

AND BECAUSE WE BROKE OUR FUNDRAISING GOAL…EVERYONE GETS AN EXTRA RECESS!!! 

Thank you again for your support of the PTA and our school community. Sligo Creek is a special place for our students to learn because of YOU! 

With gratitude,

Laura Fruge and Katey Prudhomme

Salamander Stride co-chairs

Items will be delivered in early December and will be here in time for the winter and the holiday season.

Room Parent Update

Thanks to all those parents who helped make Fall Festival a success! This week, we will start assigning staff for winter giving and we will be seeking classes to take on additional staff. Thank you!
