Get Ready for the Dutchmen Dash Fundraiser
We’re thrilled for the PTO's main fundraiser: our Dutchmen Dash! Our fundraising goal is to raise $25,000 for student incentives (PBIS prizes, school store items, special events throughout the year to support school initiatives), classroom supplies, and staff support (staff appreciation, activities and supplies) to benefit our students at Annville-Cleona.
Why are we excited?
✅ Easy-to-use fundraising platform
✅ Character-building program
✅ Fitness celebration event for every student!
Families will gather donations through MyBooster.com by simply sharing your student’s page with friends and family. Every share makes a difference!
Students will also enjoy 'Global Kitchen Club,' an exciting character-building adventure where they'll learn important values through recipes and activities popular around the world.

Be a Price Detective: Estimate the total cost of several food items before checking out. About how much change would you receive if you gave the cashier two ten-dollar bills? What would your change be if you used a fifty-dollar bill?
