Watson Elementary will hold their inaugural Walk-A-Thon on Friday, October 10th during school hours. Participation is free for students who will walk with their classmates during an assigned time. The Walk-A-Thon will be our main fundraiser for the year. Students will solicit flat rate donations instead of selling items in a traditional merchandise fundraiser. All donations raised will be used to fund our planned events (COSI, Glow Night, Bingo Night, Mother/Son, Father/Daughter, Success Club, 4^th Grade Party and gifts, Field Day, and Field Trips to name a few)  for the year.  Pledge sheets and donations are due by Wednesday, October 8th. Contact Watson UNITE (watsonunite@yahoo.com) for more information.
