FUN RUN
April 13, 2023
The Indian Hills Elementary School Fun Run is our annual signature event in which we engage the full student body, kindergarten- 6th grade, in a 30-minute outside run to raise money for our school. Students will challenge themselves to run as many laps as they can, and earn pledges from their family members and friends to raise funds for the PTO to support the school.
Parents/Guardians are encouraged to cheer the students on as they run. Your child's teacher will let you know when they are scheduled to run as we get closer to the date!

Donate
The Indian Hills Parent Teacher Organization supports the students, teachers and staff at Indian Hills Elementary School by hosting family nights, coordinating volunteers necessary to run programs and events, providing classroom supplies and equipment, and fundraising for "big ticket" purchases that fall outside of the school's budget. In addition to bringing back our popular Fall Harvest Dance, movie nights, and BINGO this school year, the PTO provided each student and staff member with a free spirit gear t-shirt, set-up art stations and game opportunities to supplement recess offerings, and curated self-guided sensory spaces in our hallways to allow our students a variety of quiet activities to calm anxiety or re-focus their energy. We could not provide our amazing staff with the support they need, and plan our fun, family activities without the generous contributions of our community.
