🏴‍☠️💰 DAY 2 FUNDRAISER UPDATE — METRO E IS ALREADY MAKING MOVES! 💰🏴‍☠️

We are only on DAY 2 of our Fall Fundraiser and our Buccaneers have already raised...

🎉 $4,105!!! 🎉

That puts us at MORE THAN 20% of our $20,000 goal! 💜💛

But check out this math because THIS makes our goal feel completely possible:

👧👦 381 students are currently registered.
💰 If each of those students raises just $53...
🎯 WE WILL HIT OUR $20,000 GOAL!!!

$53. THAT'S IT!

That doesn't have to come from one person. A few $5 donations, some $10 donations, a $20 from Grandma... small donations can make a BIG impact when our entire Metro E community works together! 🙌

So, Metro E families, KEEP SHARING THOSE STUDENT LINKS!

📲 Text them to family & friends.
📱 Post them on Facebook and social media.
👵 Send them to Grandma & Grandpa.
💼 Share them with coworkers.
🏘️ Send them to neighbors.

TEXT IT. POST IT. SHARE IT. REPEAT! 😂

And for our community members who would like to support Metro E as a whole, you can donate directly here:

👉 https://app.schoolfundr.org/fund/metro_2026

Remember, our goal is $20,000 by October 14th, and the funds we raise will support student incentives and campus improvement projects for our 90-year-old building! 🏫

💰 RAISED: $4,105
🎯 GOAL: $20,000
📈 PROGRESS: 20%+
👧👦 REGISTERED STUDENTS: 381
🔥 MAGIC NUMBER: $53 PER STUDENT!

WE. CAN. DO. THIS. METRO E! 💜💛🏴‍☠️

🚨🚀 METRO E… WE ARE OFFICIALLY LIVE!!! 🚀🚨

The wait is OVER! Our 2026 Metro E Fall Fundraiser has officially LAUNCHED TODAY! 🎉💰

Now it’s time for our Metro E students and families to do what we do best…

📲 SHARE, SHARE, SHARE!

Families, log into your student’s SchoolFundr profile and start sending out their personal fundraising link!

👵 Grandparents
👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Aunts, uncles & cousins

🏘️ Neighbors
💼 Coworkers
📱 Facebook, Instagram & social media

SEND THAT LINK OUT! Every share gives someone another opportunity to support your student and Metro E! 🙌

🎯 THE GOAL: $20,000!

We have 21 DAYS to make it happen!

📅 Fundraiser Begins: September 23
🏁 Fundraiser Ends: October 14
💰 Goal: $20,000

And one of the BEST things about this fundraiser is that 97% of the proceeds come back to Metro E, with only 3% going toward credit card processing fees!

The money we raise will help us continue providing student incentives and fund important campus projects for our 90-YEAR-OLD BUILDING! 🏫💙

🎓🏴‍☠️ IT'S COLLEGE & CAREER READINESS WEEK AT METRO E! 💜💛

We are kicking off our first themed dress-up week of the school year! Each day has a different theme to get our Buccaneers thinking about their futures while having a little fun along the way! 🎓👔

📅 Check out the daily themes in this week's edition of The Metro!

👕 IMPORTANT DRESS-UP REMINDER:
This is NOT a free-dress week! If your student does not participate in the theme of the day, they MUST be in regular Metro E dress code. Also, Crocs, slides, and flip-flops are NOT permitted on any dress-up day.

💰 AND… OUR FALL FUNDRAISER IS COMING!

Our SchoolFundr Fall Fundraiser officially launches Wednesday, but we need your help RIGHT NOW!

Before students can begin campaigning, their SchoolFundr account MUST be registered. Registration takes only 2–3 minutes per student!

📊 Currently, only 222 of our 685 students are registered. We have a LOT of Buccaneers left to go!

👉 Right now, we are ONLY asking you to register your student's account. The actual fundraising/campaigning begins Wednesday.

🎯 Our school-wide goal is $20,000!

The funds raised will help provide student incentives throughout the year and support important campus projects and needs. Plus, 97% of the proceeds come back to Metro E!

Let's get those registration numbers moving! 🚀

📖 All registration instructions and the College & Career Readiness Week flyer are included in this week's “The Metro” Parent Newsletter --> https://corpuschristiisdtx.edurooms.com/newsletters/metro-elementary-school-of-design/newsletters/2-1-the-metro-parent-newsletter
