NMS Walk-A-Thon (Ellis & Kocon) Dear Nitschmann Students & Families, It’s time for our NMS Walk-a-Thon! Leadership Council has planned a fun and fit activity for the Nitschmann students. Your Nitschmann lion will walk during school hours on Friday, October 25th.  Your participation in obtaining sponsors for this event is crucial to our success. We need everyone’s help in achieving our goal of $10,000. The funds we raise will help leadership council offset the cost of grade level field trips, assembly programs, grade-level and schoolwide activities, as well as recognition and rewards programs.  These funds are critical to provide the “Nitschmann experience” to each child! If each family raises $15, we will achieve our goal.  We have provided incentives for students to earn as they raise money for our walk (see reverse). Students may start collecting pledges as soon as they receive the pledge sheet.  Door to door solicitation is not encouraged. Students are encouraged to ask their family members and friends for a flat donation to support student activities at Nitschmann. Checks should be made out to Nitschmann Middle School. Your student’s name should be written on the memo line. Please be sure to place all your money inside the attached envelope and return it to your homeroom teacher no later than Wednesday, October 23rd. Late submissions will be accepted, but students will not be eligible for prizes. We’re hoping to make this Walk-a-Thon fun and successful.  Thank you for your efforts and support in helping raise funds for our students!
