Fundraising

Fundraising Projects

School fundraising is an incredible journey that brings everyone closer - students, teachers, and the community. It's more than just raising money. It's about building a strong, united community. 

When we work together towards a goal, we create lasting memories and learn valuable lessons in cooperation and commitment. The funds raised make a big difference, helping our school grow and provide better opportunities for our students. 

In the end, school fundraising is important, not solely for its financial benefits, but also for the unity and spirit it creates in our school community. Let's keep this spirit alive and continue making our school a wonderful place for learning and growing together!

All fundraising for Pawnee CUSD #11 must be approved by the athletic director and principal and placed on the master calendar. No student is to attempt a fundraiser without coach/sponsor and administrative approval. All money collected should be turned in by established deadlines. Coaches/sponsors should deposit money in the school safe daily. Fundraising money should never be kept in classrooms or lockers.
