Thank you from the 5th grade & PTA Engagement Committee!

A HUGE thank you to all of you who purchased Lou Malnati’s gift cards to support the PTA in gifting the entire 2017-2018 5th grade class their last yearbook from Walker Elementary.

It was a great success! The kids sold 113 certificates and surpassed our hopes to raise at least half the cost to cover the yearbooks from this endeavor. Because of you, we are now only $200 away from accomplishing our overall goal of $780.  Big thanks also to Erin Sacluti for leading this effort!

Who doesn’t love Lou Malnati’s pizza and our Walker 5th Graders?!? Today the 5th graders will be bringing home order forms for Lou Malnati’s frozen pizza certificates. All proceeds will go to funding yearbooks for all the 5th grade students at the end of this school year. The certificates are $13 each (cash or check made out to Walker School PTA) and are good at any Lou Malnati’s location, even Arizona, – so this is the perfect fundraiser for hitting up out of town friends and family! Orders and $ are due to school by Monday, December 4th so that we can get the certificates back in time to distribute before Winter Break. In addition to providing one of the easiest, most delicious dinners ever – these certificates also make great holiday gifts, so stock up! Find a 5th grader and place your order today! Don’t know a 5th grader? Stop by the school office to place an order and I will get your certificates to you when they arrive!  Questions? Contact Erin Sacluti

If you’re really motivated and want to sell a bunch of Gift Certificates to your friends/family/co-workers, you can download your own Lou Malnatis order form HERE
