Centennial Booster Club

2007 - 2008

Who are we? Booster Club is a parent-teacher organization that supports Centennial financially through fundraising events and provides volunteers for a variety of school programs and activities.

What do we do with money we raise? Through our fundraising efforts we have purchased several pieces of playground equipment and sponsored a variety of wonderful assemblies and programs. We have supported music, P.E., library, and technology. We provide a fund for teachers to use for extra classroom expenses and pay for field trips. We sponsor parent education, the fifth grade party, and staff appreciation, as well as our Passport Club and 100-Mile Club.

How can you help? If every parent does a little, amazing things can happen at Centennial. Find an area of interest and volunteer in a Booster Club activity. The Booster Club meets the third Thursday of each month. Here is the meeting schedule for this year:

October 11, 2007 (second Thursday)	March 20, 2008
November 15, 2007	April 17, 2008
December 2007 - TBA	May 15, 2008
January 17, 2008	June 12, 2008 (second Thursday)
February 21, 2008

It's a WIN-WIN-WIN situation! You will get to know other parents, help our marvelous staff and work alongside your children to give them all the learning opportunities possible and continue to build the wonderful community of Centennial.
