Move-A-Thon Prize Assembly
Other Event Type for Peel School District Board/ Peel Elementary Virtual School Move-a-thonJun 09, 2025 8:00 AM to Jun 30, 2025 2:30 PM
*****This is the same event as the Peel District School Board EVS event** Did not realize event donation requests decline after the date of the event. Our prize assembly will be in June, and we would like to offer some special prizes for continued fundraising.
EVS (Elementary Virtual School) is a unique public school within the Peel District School Board, established as a Pandemic Response School to serve students who are unable to attend traditional in-person schools due to medical, mental health, or learning needs. Our fully online environment brings together students from diverse communities across Ontario, many of whom face challenges in connecting with peers and participating in typical school activities.
Our school’s purpose is to provide a safe, inclusive, and accessible learning environment for students with a wide range of needs, ensuring they receive high-quality education and support regardless of their circumstances. We serve students and families who require flexibility and specialized support, helping them to thrive academically and socially.
To foster engagement and community spirit, we organize events such as our annual Move-A-thon, which raises essential funds for initiatives like our Grade 8 graduation. Because our students do not interact in person, motivating participation and fundraising can be challenging. We encourage involvement by offering exciting prizes, such as tickets to Canada’s Wonderland, which many of our students have never had the chance to visit. These incentives help inspire our students to contribute and feel connected to their school community, supporting both their educational journey and their sense of belonging.
Our event was held on May the 30th and the event timeline has been extended for two more weeks. We will have our winner assembly in June.
