Jasper Elementary School to Host Wildcat Walk Fundraiser on May 18

Jasper- Jasper Elementary School will host the Wildcat Walk, a school wide walk-a-thon fundraiser, on May 18 to raise funds for the school and promote health and wellness. 

Jasper Elementary PTO and the Upgrade™ committee are hosting the event. Students will participate at the Jasper Middle School track. Students will have the opportunity to raise money for their school and walk with their classmates and family members for 30 minutes around the track. All funds raised will go back to enriching the school. 

“The Wildcat Walk is such a fun day for our students and great for both their mental and physical health,” said Mr. Taylor. 

Jasper Elementary PTO provides a variety of resources for both students and staff. Their mission is to enhance the educational experience for all students at JES, to develop a deeper connection between school and home by encouraging parental involvement, and to enrich the environment at Jasper Elementary School through volunteer and financial support. 

The Upgrade™ program provides evidence-based programs in schools to develop healthy student behaviors for daily success. 

“We hope the community can help us reach our goal to raise $50,000 this year,” said Kristin Braun. “Every dollar raised directly benefits our elementary school,” Braun said.
