Practice-a-thon Results!
Special thanks to our Practice-a-thon Coordinators, Jason and Gina Gant, for doing all the footwork and securing great prizes for our participants! In case you missed the Play-in, here are our results:
We had 33 students participate (21 last year)!
These students practiced 7,885 minutes -- WHOO HOO! :)
These students brought in $4,040.60 for our program (you are LIFEsavers to me!)
Each participating student received a Mr Gattis buffet coupon and a Sonic drink coupon. Students raising over $50 (24 students) will receive a Suzuki tote bag this week. In addition, take a look at these winning students' numbers:

Our practice-a-thon is a way for us to emphasize good practice habits while supporting the AC Suzuki Program’s operating and scholarship fund. Students will be recognized for their time practiced as well as the amount of money raised in the three age groups: 3-6, 7-12 and 13-18, AND each student who turns in a minimum of $50 will receive a cool AC Suzuki gift!
Start collecting pledges/donations NOW. Practice time should be recorded from April 12-18. The deadline to turn in money and completed forms is Wednesday, April 22 (turn in to Mrs. Nies or in the drop box at Room 308).
We know that each family will participate in the practice-a-thon to the best of its ability and will celebrate our efforts at the Play-in on April 25. Thank you very much for your participation!
