Short Avenue Elementary’s 2nd Annual Dolphin Derby Virtual Week ~ May 3rd – 7th, 2021
We are excited to announce that we will be holding our Second Annual Dolphin Derby Fundraiser but this year it will be Virtual and a weeklong event (May 3rd-7th).
Students can do the exercise of their choice (run, walk, skip rope, jump on a trampoline, skateboard, roller skate, do yoga etc.) for 20 minutes a day over the course of 5 days, for a total 100 minutes! This will be a great event where we raise awareness of the importance of having an active and healthy lifestyle, while raising money for our school.
Students will be given a letter which should be forwarded to grandparents, aunts, uncles, friends, neighbors, and/or community members in order to collect pledges for their participation in the Virtual Dolphin Derby Week. This letter states the details of the Virtual Dolphin Derby Week including how to sponsor a student with a flat rate donation.
Last year we raised $17,468. This year our goal is $20,000!
The Short Avenue student population is approximately 320. If each student secured $65 of sponsorship, we would reach our $20,000 goal!!!
School Wide Goal Prizes
If we reach our school-wide goal of $10,000, Karen will have all the ingredients of a hot fudge sundae poured all over her while being filmed for all the school to see!
If we reach our school-wide goal of $20,000, Karen will be sprayed from head toe with silly string while being filmed for all the school to see!
Student Goal Prizes
Every class that reaches 100% participation (at least 1 pledged donation from every student) will receive a popsicle party!* The student who raises the most money will win a $100 gift card to the sporting goods store of their choice! *All cohorts of students will be included if the class earns a popsicle party.
PLEDGE HERE!
Celebrate being back on campus! Enjoy a delicious meal (breakfast, lunch or dinner) while you discuss all the happenings of your child’s new adventures.
Beginning Monday, April 19th through Sunday, April 25th, Allegra California Café will donate 20% of all sales back to our school when you dine-in, call-in, or online at www.allegracaliforniacafe.com (redirects to ChowNow) and enter promo code SHORT or mention you are from Short Avenue while placing your order.

Our Annual Giving Drive is our biggest friend raiser of the year! All donations are tax deductible and 100% of donations go directly to fund programs for our kids! Any amount is appreciated; no amount is too small!!
Please see the schedule below for your child’s picture time. We would like to follow the time schedule as much as possible for crowd control but, you are welcome to come at anytime between 2-5pm if you are not able to make it at your child’s scheduled time. Remember to wear masks and social distance while waiting for your turn. Masks should be removed only when the photo is being taken. All photos will be taken outside in front of the school.
Order forms will be available and need to filled out and turned in with payment on the day you have your picture taken; cash, checks payable to Shutterbug Express, and credit cards accepted. Sanitized pens will be provided. See the attached flyer for photo packages and pricing.
The photos taken on these two days will be used in the yearbook so even if you don’t plan on purchasing photos, we would really appreciate you bringing your child/ren to have their photos taken so they can be included on their class page with their classmates and teacher. We understand and respect that you may not be comfortable having photos taken at this time. We will have spring photos as well that can be used for the yearbook.
* Siblings/pods can come together at one of their scheduled class times
