Hello CDSA Families!
It’s that time of year again—the annual CDSA Jog-a-thon is here! This is our biggest and most important PTA fundraiser, and we can’t wait to celebrate together.
Thanks to the generous support of our families, friends, neighbors, and employers, the Jog-a-thon funds incredible opportunities for every CDSA student—like the Artist in Residence Program, field trips, clay projects, and so much more!
💥 The Big Event:
On September 25, students will hit the track for a fun-run style Jog-a-thon, running alongside classmates and family while earning bracelets for every lap completed. Every child gets to join the fun—and students who raise funds can earn prizes too!
✨ Grand Prize Alert! New this year!
The Top 5 Fundraisers will score a super special reward: an after-school limo ride to Dairy Queen! 🍦🚘
📅 Mark Your Calendars:
Sept. 5 – Jog-a-thon envelopes come home
Sept. 19 – Envelopes due back to school
Sept. 25 – Jog-a-thon Day! (Schedule coming soon)

Kindergarten students in Ms. Larrinaga's class are learning about shapes, their attributes, and how to manage centers/stations all at once!
We love watching these little minds grow.
