Dear Friends and Family,

I am getting ready to boogie down in September and give my best at Mangini Ranch Elementary’s 2nd annual Dance-A-Thon. This event raises money for events and programs, as well as field trips, assemblies, and more to support my learning experience.

I am asking for sponsors to help me reach my fundraising goal. Will you help by making a pledge per minute danced or a simple flat donation? All donations go directly back to the school.

Thank you all for your support and encouragement!

About this fundraiser:

If we raise at least $30k Mr. Peterson will be getting slimed!

Can we come watch our kiddos?

Unfortunately no. The Dance-a-thon will be held during school hours this year. However, the PTA does need volunteers to help facilitate! If you are interested in becoming a volunteer and helping out please reach out to ManginiRanchElementaryPTA@gmail.com for more details on how to get involved.

What exactly is a Dance-a-Thon?

On Thursday 9/19 TK-2nd grade students will participate in the Dance-a-thon. Students in TK and Kinder will dance together first for up to 30 min in the multipurpose room. Followed by 1st grade students, and lastly 2nd grade students. They will not be dancing alone, they will be dancing with all the students in their grade level. It is very casual, fun, and low-pressure. We will have music, balloons and decorations, fun lighting, and refreshments for them. After 30 min they will go back to class. Then on Friday 9/20 3rd-5th grade students will do the same.

What if my child does not want to participate in the Dance-a-Thon?

If a child does not want to dance during the dance-a-thon we will have chairs available and they can sit and watch. However, this will be a very fun event and I predict that most kids will be dancing- I am hoping once they see all their friends having fun
they will want to join in too.

What are the shirts for?

Every student at Mangini Ranch will receive a Dance-a-thon shirt whether or not they choose to participate or raise funds. This year we are asking every parent to order a shirt for their child for $5 and PTA will cover the rest.

On the day of their Dance-a-thon we would like students to wear their Dance-a-thon shirt. So tk-2nd graders will wear their shirts on Thursday 9/19 and 3rd-5th graders will wear their shirts on Friday 9/20. The week leading up to the Dance-a-Thon we will have Spirit week to get everyone excited for the event! Be on the lookout for more information regarding that soon!
