Description

The PTO at Chippewa Middle School is starting to look forward to the 8th grade commencement and celebration dance. I am hoping your organization may be able to help contribute a raffle prize or 2 or smaller "swag" products for the celebration activities on May 31, 2023. All of our students have worked very hard to resume "normal" activities and studies after the remote years due to Covid, and we look forward to recognizing their resilience and accomplishments. 

The Chippewa Organization of Parents and Educators funds stem/robotics/cultural and other enrichment events throughout the year, as well supporting positive behavior incentive programs (Chief of the Week, Chief of the Month, etc). The end of the year is when we showcase the students who shine. At the graduation ceremony, roughly 250 students will receive a little treat/swag bag courtesy of the PTO and community sponsors. Later that night, all students and families that attend the dance/celebration will have an opportunity to enter multiple raffles to start the summer off on the right foot, hosted completely by the PTO. We hope you will consider supporting this worthy cause. All of the community sponsors will be recognized for their generosity in all the flyers and social media posts!
