All Stratton students are invited to participate by choosing an activity to demonstrate their Stratton PRIDE, setting a goal, and asking their friends and family (with your help + a personalized fundraising webpage) to support their school community as they strive to reach it.

The Pride-a-Thon launches Monday with a special treat for all students (in backpacks or via Remote Academy materials pick up). But, you can start customizing and sending out your students' fundraising pages to friends and family today (Thursday, 5/6).

Just follow the Pride-a-Thon How-To document by clicking on: Pride-A-Thon How-To

Step 1: Each participating student chooses an activity and sets a goal. 
 
Step 2: Access your student's fundraising webpage template and personalize using our How-To Guide. Make sure your family has an active Membership Toolkit user account. If you don't, just create an account at the PTO homepage: strattonpto.org. 

 
Step 3: Through May 24, share your student's fundraising page. Encourage friends and family to show their support as your student works to reach their goal.  
 
Step 4: People donate to the Stratton PTO in honor of your students' efforts and in support of our school. 
 
Activity Ideas: It's up to you and your student(s)! 

• baking cookies for neighbors
• pushing myself to ride my bike for 10 miles in one shot
• babysitting my sister every day for 30 minutes for two weeks, for free
• picking up litter
• giving up Roblox for one week
• making cards for people in the nursing home
• doing 100 cartwheels in a row

Initiatives like the Pride-A-Thon support the PTO's work to deliver great enrichment ... like the artist Bren Bataclan, who started his residency this week to paint a mural on our blacktop storage container. In fact, the class with the highest student participation % will win the honor of displaying a Bren Bataclan original in their classroom (and double recess!).
