Let's come together to make this event a success!
The Walk-A-Thon is a fun-filled event where we celebrate fitness, fun, and community. It is also our biggest fundraiser of the year. The funds we raise will allow us to support additional enrichment for our school, including field trips, assemblies, library books, classroom supplies, and staff appreciation.
All students will receive a free Walk-A-Thon t-shirt to wear on March 27!
Thank you for your support, and we hope to see you there!

The Walk-A-Thon is the PTA's biggest fundraiser of the year and our goal is to raise $15,000. The funds will be used for supplies, field trips, assemblies, equipment, and more!
Students can help raise funds by collecting pledges from friends and family. An envelope will be sent home for students to collect pledges in person (cash and/or checks payable to 'Monta Loma PTA'), and you can also set up a page on 99Pledges for your student to collect pledges online. See instructions here for setting up a page.
Pledges are flat donations and are not based on laps completed. If your employer matches donations, please email treasurer@montalomapta.org so that we can update your student's fundraising progress with your donation! Our EIN is 770387464.
Envelopes can be returned to the classroom until Tuesday, March 24th. After this date, please return the envelopes to the front office. All pledges (cash, check, & online) will be accepted through Friday, March 27th.
