Battle of the Coins is a PTO sponsored fundraiser in which grade level teams compete for the most points. Students bring in pennies and bills to place in their team jar for positive points, and silver coins to decrease the amount of points in other jars.
How it Works:
- School of Grammar students are divided into grade-level teams. Each grade will be assigned a collection jar.
- PTO Members will be in the cafeteria with jars each morning before school from 7:30-7:55 a.m. to collect coins. No coins will be collected in the classrooms or after 7:55 a.m.
- Pennies and paper bills are positive points. All silver currency are negative points, so make sure students place those in an opposing team’s jar!
- The money in each grade-level jar will be counted daily and the points tallied. Point standings will be announced at the beginning of the next school day and posted to the PTO Facebook page.
- School of Logic and Rhetoric student’s can bring in coins/bills to help K-4.
- The WINNING grade level will receive a golden pencil, 10 minutes of extra recess, and bragging rights.
