Holiday Giving Campaign

We will be running a holiday giving campaign through the rest of the holiday season. We have some families in our community who are struggling financially this holiday season. We will be collecting monetary donations that will be used to purchase Christmas meals.


At school, students can participate through our annual penny wars activity here at school (donating coins). See the details about the Penny Wars below! Online, parents can participate through the "Tolman Elementary Holiday Giving" fund available through myDSD.

Penny Wars Penny Wars

Penny Wars during Lunch!  Pennies and dollars are positive points (to your class); nickels, dimes, and quarters are negative points (to another class).  The class with the most points at the end of the week, will win a prize.

This week Tolman Student Council is hosting a Penny Wars fundraiser to support the Tolman Holiday Giving Campaign!


Classes compete by adding pennies (or bills) to their team jar (each penny = 1 point). To make it more exciting, silver coins subtract points when placed in another class’s jar — so teams strategize to protect their lead! This is a simple, hands-on way for students to learn teamwork, counting, and good sportsmanship while raising money for a great cause. Send your baggies of change to school with your student(s) and they can bring them to lunch for some lunch time fun! Thank you for helping make our Penny Wars and Holiday Giving Campaign a success!

Book Battles Book Battles

Join our school Book Battle Program! It is a fun way to read great books and earn prizes. You can also compete on a team for our school Book Battle Competition in March. Just start reading from the list of books on the flyer and pass them off using the QR code or get a paper from the library. Students can continue to pass off books through March but will need to have 3 books read and passed off by Winter Break to be placed on a team.


For all the details and information, please check out this flyer: 2026 Book Battle Flyer
