1-2-3-4… we declare a COIN RACE!

OUR COIN RACE WILL START TOMORROW (Monday)!!!!!

It’s that time of year again, our annual Coin Race (formerly known as the Penny Showdown) fundraiser will take place April 13–17.
We’ve changed things up a bit this year with a fun Mario-themed competition, and each grade level will be its own team!

How it works:
Students can add pennies, cash, and online donations to their grade’s jar.
Silver coins (a.k.a. “bananas”) should be placed in other grades’ jars to lower their totals.
The jars will be in the school lobby from 7:45 until 8:10. At 8:10 we will begin counting coins so please make sure that all money is in the jars at that time.

Daily Incentives:
Each morning, the grade in the lead will receive a small prize for their grade.

Milestone Reward:
Once a grade level raises $300, they will earn popsicles!

Grand Prize:
The grade in the lead after counting on Friday morning will win the Coin Race and earn a pajama & stuffy day, with a cookie and extra recess!

New This Year – Power-Ups! ⭐
Starting Wednesday, special power-ups will be available that are worth extra points.
These will be posted each morning on DOJO—please be checking so you don’t miss out!

Donations & QR Code:
A QR code for online donations will be included on flyers sent home.
It will also be posted on the school’s front door and on DOJO for easy access.
The PTO is a 501c3 organization and donation receipts can be provided upon request.

Special Event:
Our annual Trivia Night will be held on Thursday, April 16 from 5:30–7:00 PM in the gym. Coin jars will be available for donations during the event.

Grade Level Teams:
Preschool – Yoshi
Kindergarten – Princess Peach
1st Grade – Toad
2nd Grade – Mario
3rd Grade – Luigi
4th Grade – Bowser
5th Grade – Rosalina

The Great Coin Race will end Friday, April 17th at 8:10 AM. Please make sure all contributions are turned in by that time.

Thank you for your support and enthusiasm—we’re excited for a fun and successful fundraiser!

Best,
Your Rogers PTO
