Tomorrow is the last official day of our Read Books 2 Raise Bucks fundraising campaign. We have raised $34,000 so far which is AMAZING! We are so close to our goal of $50,000 so let's finish strong!
Approximately 60% of our students have already received a donation on their behalf. Thank you students and families! If the remaining 40% each brought in a donation tomorrow, we'd hit our goal in no time.
Whether you have given some or none, please consider making a contribution tonight!
ALL students will participate in a "Read In" to wrap up this fundraising campaign and finish up any reading goals they have set. ALL students are invited to wear their pajamas to school to enjoy the "Read In" tomorrow, Friday, September 8.
Read Books 2 Raise Bucks uses the tag line "The more YOU give, the more THEY get". This applies to students, teachers, parents and the LCE community as a whole because the money raised will be used as follows:
- 5% goes to campus wide service learning projects
- 20% goes to teachers for classroom use
- 25% goes to off set the cost of field studies
- 50% goes to school wide needs
Additionally, there are awesome incentives for you and your student:
- Raise $50 to get $3 in Scholastic Bucks to use at Fall Book Fair

Whatever level you raise, you get all the incentives under it. Donations can be sent in via cash or check with your student tomorrow or go to http://lceptoreadbooks2raisebucks.eventbrite.com/ to donate online.
