Description

Color-a-thon is a fun run/walk charity fundraiser event for iLearn schools students and adults of all ages. Not only is this a form of fundraiser for iLearn Schools but it also provides opportunity for our students to be active and to form camaraderie with all the other students and their families.

Participants run in a course while being thrown non-toxic colors. Participants will be the students and family members of all iLearn Schools. iLearn Schools consist of Bergen Arts and Science Charter School, Hudson Arts and Science Charter School, Passaic Arts and Science Charter School and Paterson Arts and Science Charter School.

 After the color-a-thon event, a picnic celebration for all families of iLearn Schools students will be held.

 Proceeds from this event will go toward enhancing the academic and enrichment programs for all our iLearn Schools students. With this funding, we will be:

  • Helping build a robust and high quality space and supplies for our classrooms that will help our students thrive more
  • Rewarding innovation and excellence of our STEAM programs
  • Providing opportunities for growth and development of our teachers and students
  • Addressing critical operational challenges and sustainability of all our schools

iLearn Schools is a 501 C(3) public charter management organization that provides high quality STEAM-based education in a digital learning environment to K-12 students. Students are empowered to meet and surpass grade level standards, and to succeed in college, careers, and life.

Our campuses are located in the following towns: Hackensack, Garfield, Passaic, Clifton, Kearny, Jersey City and Paterson. According to the newly released NJ Department of Education 2015-2016 Charter Schools Performance Framework-Tier Ranking report cards, ALL iLearn Schools received Tier 1 Ranking – the highest rank that a school can possibly achieve. Specifically, the socio economic status of our students indicates that 75% of them are entitled to free or reduced federal lunch/breakfast programs.
