Jogathon
FUN Run and FUNdraising for Jefferson Bruins
What is Jogathon?
Get ready to lace up your sneakers and join in the fun at our annual Jogathon – an exciting event that brings together students, families, and our entire Jefferson Elementary community for a day of fun and fundraising! It's more than just a fun run; it's a chance to support education, create lasting memories, and make a positive impact.
Why is Jogathon important?
Funding Excellence
Jogathon is our flagship fundraiser. The funds raised play a crucial role in supporting vital programs like staff grants and the 5th-grade camp. Your participation directly contributes to enhancing the quality of education for every child at Jefferson Elementary.
Community Building
The Jogathon is a celebration of community spirit. Families, teachers, and students come together to cheer for one another, fostering a sense of camaraderie that goes far beyond the day of the fun run.
Fitness and Fun
It's not just about raising funds; it's about getting active and having a blast! Students run laps around the track, all to the beats of a DJ who sets the rhythm for the day. Each class ties-dye shirts in a unique color, making the event even more vibrant and energetic.
Who makes Jogathon happen?
Jogathon is an annual program overseen by the Jogathon Committee of your Jefferson Elementary PTA. This program is led by the Jogathon Committee chairperson and run by committee members and volunteers.
How can I participate?
Fundraise
Students and families can directly impact the Jogathon by gathering pledges from friends and family or making individual contributions themselves. The funds you raise make a significant difference in our educational programs.
