ON-GOING FUNDRAISING 2025-26
2025-10-01 - 2026-05-31
Help Us Keep Our Teachers at Bonner Elementary
This school year is unlike any other. Severe district budget cuts mean our Parent Teacher Organization must step in to help fund our school’s general fund.
Without additional support, we risk losing teachers and support staff, leading to larger class sizes for our kids.
Earlier this year, we promised families that our “UnFundraiser” would be our only donation request. But the situation has changed, and we must ask for your help once more.
Thanks to your generosity, our school was able to keep a teacher who would have otherwise been let go. Your on-going support will ensure that all our children continue to learn in supportive, engaging classrooms.
You may notice that the PTO isn’t spending as much this year on meals and extras for staff. We’re being intentional — focusing our resources where they make the greatest impact: direct financial support going directly to our school.
We’ll still find ways to show appreciation, but our priority is making sure every dollar we raise benefits Bonner teachers and students.
Donate any amount using this payment link and we’ll be updating you throughout the year on how we’re doing!

2025-10-10 17:00 - 20:00 | Playground Blacktop at Bonner

Online orders are cut off but you can buy wristbands and raffle tickets at the event on Friday night. $10 for wristbands (Adults and kids under 3 are free!). We can take cash or cards as payment.
Doors open at 5pm with the first wave of Trunk-or-Treaters starting at 5:45. When the kids aren’t getting candy from the trunks they can play games and we’ll have food vendors outside selling dinner and treats!
VOLUNTEERS! We could still use some helpers – especially adults/parents! Click here to view the spots https://signup.com/go/SbbFNgr
**NEW**

RAFFLE TICKETS:
Teachers have come up with such fun experiences and are donating their time to be with our kiddos! Buy tickets here – then you can view the many – almost 40! – options on stage in the lunchroom this week and at Fall Fest.
HERE’S WHY:

This school year is unlike any other. Severe district budget cuts mean our Parent Teacher Organization must step in to help fund our school’s general fund.
Without additional support, we risk losing teachers and support staff, leading to larger class sizes for our kids.
Earlier this year, we promised families that our “UnFundraiser” would be our only donation request. But the situation has changed, and we must ask for your help once more.
Thanks to your generosity, our school was able to keep a teacher who would have otherwise been let go. Now we need your support again to ensure that all our children continue to learn in supportive, engaging classrooms. EVERY DOLLAR HELPS KEEP CLASS SIZES MANAGEABLE.
