We did it: $61,342 raised for St. Cyril, and Turkey Trot race day is this Friday.
Thank you to every family, grandparent, and friend who donated. As of Sunday, November 8, 417 supporters have given $61,342 — 111% of our $55,000 goal — before a single lap was run, and on Friday, November 13 our students get to celebrate it on the field. A reminder that Wednesday, November 11 is Veterans Day and there is no school. Our See’s Candies online fundraiser is open now through Friday, December 4, so please share the link with friends and family. And save the date for the Tree Lighting & Holiday Boutique that same evening.
With gratitude, The Parent Association Board

Turkey Trot: We Did It
Fri Nov 13 · Morning run groups by grade · On campus
St. Cyril families have raised $61,342 for our school, and now it is time to run. Ceciliane’s Lil’ Espresso Beans (5th Grade) lead the class race at $15,230, with Moffat’s Minions (6th Grade) close behind at $14,695 and the 7th-Grade Sprinters third at $6,220; Alessandra K. and Vivian T. top the student leaderboard at $10,000 each. Students wear their green spirit shirt and their class-color bandana on Friday, and families are welcome to come cheer at their student’s run time. Donations still count toward class and student prizes through Friday at 5:00 PM, so there is time for one last gift.
