Why We’re Fundraising
At its heart, the Walk-A-Thon is all about celebrating our kids through the joys and benefits of movement! Every step, skip, and lap our students take fuels their energy, builds healthy habits, and strengthens their sense of community.
100% of the funds we raise go straight back into making Clinton a vibrant place to learn and play—powering awesome field trips, inspiring assemblies, well-stocked classrooms, and top-notch active gear that keeps our students smiling.
When our community comes together, incredible things happen for our kids!
You Asked, We Listened! 🌟
Thanks to wonderful feedback from parents and students this past year, reaching our fundraising goal will allow us to bring two special, highly requested projects to life:
- âš½ Brand-New Soccer Goals: Our old goalposts took a beating last year and were sadly destroyed, but replacing them has been at the top of everyone's wishlist! We can't wait to set up a sturdy new pair to keep active play going during recess, after-school matches, and weekend family fun.
- 🎨 Our Very First School Mural: You’ve been asking for a school mural, and it’s finally happening! We are so excited to launch a school-wide artwork project where every single student can interact, participate, and see firsthand just how important and loved they are at Clinton.
How Your Support Makes a Difference
When we meet our goal, we open the door to exciting projects like these and support essential programs across the entire school:
| Impact Area | How It Helps Our Students |
| P.E. & Active Play | Equipping our fabulous P.E. team with fresh sports gear and active play equipment to keep our kids moving, playing, and thriving every day. |
| Building School Spirit | Partnering with our Climate & Culture team to host joyful, school-wide events—like interactive scavenger hunts that build teamwork, laughter, and friendship! |
| Unforgettable Learning | Funding grade-level field trips, dynamic school assemblies, and hands-on classroom resources. |
| Creative & Special Classes | Boosting art, music, science, and recess spaces with all the tools kids need to play, learn, and explore. |
