The funds from the Dance-A-Thon will help to provide health care for a community in Ecuador through Free the Children. We hope that you will support this event with your enthusiasm and generosity.<br \/>\nWhy a Dance-A-Thon? A Dance-A-Thon contributes to physical education, meaning it will benefit all students by contributing to their overall physical health. Besides the many ways it can help us, it is also an extremely fun and enjoyable activity.<br \/>\nThe Dance-A-Thon comes complete with vivid and black lighting &#8211; if your child wears white clothing, they will glow in the dark! Not only will we have a fantastical rainbow of lights, but great music as well! The classes will be dancing with other classes of similar age\/grade groupings for about 30 to 60 minutes.<br \/>\n<strong>Pledges<\/strong>: Every student will receive a pledge envelope. It is our hope that each student will raise a minimum of $20.00 in pledges, although any amount is generously appreciated. Students will be asked to get sponsors who are friends, relatives or neighbors whom they know well or trust. <strong>Students are NOT asked to go door to door to obtain sponsors<\/strong>. Flat rate pledges paid in advance are requested.<br \/>\nWe will have additional items available for sale at the Dance-A-Thon priced from $1 to $5. We know that this will add to the excitement on that day.<\/p>\n<p>Evan Dunbar and Ben Kahane,<br \/>\nGrade 6 Free the Children leaders<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We are delighted to announce that our school will be hosting a Dance-A-Thon on Tuesday, March 10.
