Fundraisers
Primary Fundraisers
The PTO has only two direct fundraisers each school year. Participation is voluntary but greatly appreciated. Our fundraisers for the current school year include:
Other Ways to Help
There are ongoing passive fundraisers you can also sign up for to help earn money for our schools with minimal extra effort (and no extra spending) required on your part:
- Spirit Sale Fridays – on select Fridays, select items (Spirit Sticks, Smencils and other scented items, and various other offerings) are available for sale to support the purchase of positive incentives for teachers/staff to provide to students
- Scholastic Book Fairs – 100% of book fair profits go to our libraries and is the primary source of new books
- Restaurant Fundraisers – watch for flyers to show at select restaurants to share a % of your purchase with the PTO
Why do we fund raise?
The Bullock Creek / Pine River PTO exists to support two elementary schools in the Bullock Creek School District. Monetary funding is a vital part of successfully achieving our organization’s purpose. The smallest donations put together can make a huge impact. Through our efforts, we have been able to fund various things in the past, including:
Field Trips – Assemblies – Nature Equipment/Supplies – Playground Upgrades – Current Periodicals (Scholastic & other specialty magazines) – Facility Equipment – Library Books (100% of Scholastic Book Fair profits goes to our libraries) – Community Events – Teacher Grants (special supplies and equipment for classrooms) – School Assemblies – Teacher Appreciation (ex: parent/teacher conference night dinners)
