PTA Fundraisers

The PTA holds three major fund raising events each year. These events help pay for the numerous class trips, assembly guest speakers that come to our school and special school supplies such as TV's, VCR's, Digital Camera, Die-Cut machine stamps and many other items purchased to enrich the students school experience.

Sally Foster / Magazine Fundraiser

Sportswear/T-Shirt Sale

Fall event. This is run as a service to the students so they can show their school spirit, not as a fund raiser. The PTA does not make any money on this event. We have a new logo for 2007-08! Coming to school this fall, the new sportswear logo is shown here to the right. New for this year is a baseball cap. This only comes in an adult one size fits all with an adjustable strap. The same sportswear logo will be used but, it will be in blue ink only.  Sale ran September 24, through October 9, 2007. Sportswear delivery was on November 2, 2007. Order forms were sent home the week of September 24 and posted on our BackPack Express web Page.

Spring Fundraiser

The Spring fundraiser has been the popular Chocolates on Broadway.

The order pick up date was Monday, March 10, 2008.

Yearbook Advertisements

Yearbook advertisements are sold to individuals and business' each year. The money raised helps provide each fifth grader with a free yearbook and T-shirt to be worn on Field day to represent Avona school.

Throughout the year there is always a contest underway to collect BoxTops. This year we changed how Box Top winners are selected . Unlike years past, the student with the most Box Tops will not automatically be the winner.

Dear Parents, Faculty and Other Supporters, Our school participates in General Mills' Box Tops for Education program to help earn extra cash to buy the things it needs. This year our goal is to raise $1,500.00 to purchase Field Trips & PTA funded activities for the students. We could really use your help to make a difference for our school. Since 1996, Box Tops for Education has helped schools raise more than $90 million. Getting involved is so simple! Box Tops provides three easy ways to earn cash for our school through everyday activities like buying groceries, shopping online and making purchases with a credit card – all at no additional cost to you.       Clip Box Tops from hundreds of your favorite General Mills products found throughout your local grocery store. Each Box Top is worth 10¢ to our school. You can get a complete list of BoxTop products by clicking HERE to open a PDF file with the list.       Join the Box Tops Booster Club and start every online shopping trip at the Box Tops Marketplace. Our school earns up to 10% of each qualifying purchase.

If you want to know more about what you can do for our school, just go to boxtops4education.com for all the information you’ll need. As of Fall, 2005 each student will earn one contest entry for every 25 Box Tops brought in. The more Box Tops one brings in, the more contest entries one earns. Each contest entry increases ones chance of winning. Each student that brings in 25 Box Tops has a chance to win. To help you with collecting the 25 BoxTops, all Students were provided with a Blast-Off Map. If it was lost or you would like one for your next 25 BoxTops, you can open another one by clicking HERE or on the BlastOff picture to the left. Once the PDF opens, you can print as many copies as needed in black & white or color. Be sure to write the students name and teacher on each map. You can also put loose BoxTops in a sealed sandwich bag (with the students name on it) in the box found in each classroom. The classroom bringing in the most BoxTops gets an ice cream party and the teacher of that class receives some kind of gift or gift card donated by area merchants.   Good luck and keep collecting! Every Box Top counts! Avona PTA
