Eagle Dash Needs You! 👟

Eagle Dash, formerly Foot Frolic Frenzy, is the PTO's biggest fundraiser of the year. The PTO works hard to raise money for fee-free field trips, classroom supplies, and many other special projects and events throughout the year. 

This year, we will host Eagle Dash for K-5 students at the Grand Rapids Christian High School Stadium on the morning of Friday, October 7, 2022!  A special Preschool Eagle Dash will be held on Thursday, October 6, and Friday, October 7 at Evergreen. 

There are many ways you can help: 

Additional information has been sent home with your child and in communications from your child’s teacher. Thank you for your help!
