Cards vs Cats - Fundraising for Special Olympics Cards vs Cats - Fundraising for Special Olympics

zoom_out_map

BCPS is raising money to support Special Olympics. Special Olympics is a global sports organization for children and adults with intellectual disabilities, providing year-round training and athletic competition in various sports. It's a movement that promotes inclusion, acceptance, and understanding by giving individuals with intellectual disabilities opportunities to participate in sports and experience the joy of competition.


When?

Between April 28th and May 21st, each school will collect money for Special Olympics through a Cats vs Cards money war.


How?

Students can use their money to vote for UL or UK. We will have collection buckets in the lobby of the school to collect money each morning.


Goal:

At the end of the fundraiser, money will be counted. During the last week of school, the principal of each school will wear the colors of the team with the most support (money) raised at their individual school. Will Mr. Mullins be wearing red or blue all week? Your donations decide!


When the money for all schools is collected and counted, Dr. Bacon (our superintendent) will wear the winning team's colors during the last week of school.

I.D. Reminder I.D. Reminder

We are wrapping up the third quarter of the year and that means that the end of the year is quickly approaching. As we plan for events to round out the end of the year, remember that any visitors to our building during the school day must present a driver's license or photo ID at the front doors for entry and front desk to sign in. This includes end of year award ceremonies.


We hate having to turn family away from awards ceremonies and other family events during the school day, but student safety is our first priority.
