HOLIDAY CASH RAFFLE

The PTO is bringing back our most popular fundraiser – the Holiday Cash Raffle!  The raffle is run through December 14^th and the winners are announced at the Holiday Concert on December 17^th.  This year we will be offering student prizes to encourage participation.  Today each student received a numbered booklet which contains 6 tickets and an additional tracking sheet for any additional tickets a student may want to sell.  The tickets sell for $2 each or you can sell the entire booklet (6 tickets) for $10. 

 

All of your tickets and the tracking sheet you have been given MUST either be sold OR returned to the office by the end of this fundraiser – Tuesday, December 15th.  For tracking purposes you will be responsible for the tickets being returned whether they were sold or not.  RETURNS should be made to the assigned box within the JMS school office. 

 

We will be having chances to win prizes for the student that sells 12 or more tickets the first week of the fundraiser, the top student sellers in each grade and a GRAND PRIZE to the top selling JMS student.
