We will be having our 5th Annual Panther Prowl on November 16th! With this type of fundraiser, 100% of the money raised will go directly to our school to offset the costs of numerous programs, technology and other supplies that benefit our students and teachers.

• Collect flat donations from friends and family prior to the event. You can even donate on-line at https://99pledges.com/fund/prowl2018.
• Donations will be turned in between October 22th – November 2nd.
• For every $30 donation, you will receive a Panther Prowl t-shirt.
• Students will Prowl with their class around the school on our walking path, Lawhon Lane during school on November 16, 2018.
• At the end of the course, we will have torture stations set up so that classes that have raised $800 or more will be able to torture their teachers!
• Every student with a Prowl shirt will get to do the Color Prowl at the end of the day. A Color Prowl is like a Color run, without the running!

If someone in your family or circle of friends owns a business, I have also included a letter that you can use to request business donations. These businesses will be thanked with advertising in print media, social media and on Prowl t-shirts. Business donations will count toward the student’s total donations.

If you have any further questions about this event, please do not hesitate to contact me. You can also check out the Bartlett Elementary PTO Facebook page for updates.

Our children are faced with various challenges each day. Often times, they don’t know how to get themselves out of difficult situations, such as peer pressure from their friends. Research shows that young people who learn to say “NO” to harmful drugs are less likely to be associated with crime, delinquency and other destructive behaviors. Please partner with us by allowing your children to participate in our theme days as we teach our students to live drug free, healthy lives.
