3rd Annual Laguna Road PTA Turkey Trot is once again a success!


The teachers ran or walked with the students and a few even flipped cartwheels!  (Miss Collins and Miss Kim).   This year medals were awarded on the field for top boy and girl runners from grades 3-6.  There were a few ties and so several one lap very exciting “run offs” occurred!  A few came down to the wire, and all of our Laguna Road kids showed exceptional sportsmanship win or lose. 

We followed up November 16, 2011 by handing out prizes. Maria from Mrs. Endicott’s class was the top fundraiser for the school, bringing $282.00 in sponsors!  She won the grand prize of a $150.00 gift certificate to Target.   The top fundraising classroom was Mrs. Endicott’s1st grade class, raising $1501.70.   They won a Jamba Juice Party! And completing the 1st grade sweep, the 1st grade team won the teacher spirit award.  Mrs. Endicott, Mrs. Jurgensen/ Mrs.Nguyen and Mrs. Kim-Lee wore handmade Turkey costumes while actively participating and cheering for their students.  Nice Work!  They get to split a $40 gift certificate to 
C & M School Supply. Several other prizes were handed out including $50.00 gift certificates to Barnes and Noble and GameStop.   Also awarded were games, a deluxe art set, toys and restaurant gift certificates.  Finally, ALL students who brought in any amount of sponsor dollars received a treat after school.  We had 380 students bring in sponsor donations!

We could not have been successful without the help of the incredible PE team.  Mrs. Ochoa, Mrs. Palmer and Mrs. Brewer helped with the event and also did all of the “pre-game warm up”, encouraging the kids for weeks to go get those sponsors!  Thank you for your support.  We are also thankful for all of our wonderful parent volunteers who donated oranges, helped on the field and with counting donor packets.  You are too numerous to mention, but know that you are appreciated.   Collectively, Laguna Road families and our business sponsors brought in $18,200!   


The turkey trot was a great achievement for our wonderful school!
