The Walkathon is an awesome PS199 day and our SECOND largest fundraiser. All funds raised through registration fees, donations and sponsors from friends and families enables the PTA to support Ms. Xerri and our teachers in creating a great learning environment for our children.

The PTA plays a critical role in filling the gap created by a reduced education budgets. Your support is instrumental in providing our teachers and children with additional resources and programming that help our school thrive.

EVERY PARTICIPANT MUST REGISTER ADULT AND CHILDREN

The top three classes with the highest percentage of students registered will win EXTRA RECESS and an hour of a special sport clinic donated by one of our sponsors.
The class standings are as follows:
As of 10/13/15
1st Place: K-110 Sharpe 88%
2nd Place K-116 Zucker 77%
3rd Place K-108 Moulton 60%
4th Place 5-324 Rosen 58%
   Sponsoring a student is a great way to support PS 199. All money goes to the PTA which funds the science teacher, arts enrichment programs in every grade, the hugely popular recess sports program, the Wellness in the School program that is bringing healthier food into our Cafeteria and pays for the classroom supplies that our kids use everyday.

WE APPRECIATE YOUR INVOLVEMENT AND LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING YOU, YOUR FAMILY AND FRIENDS AT WALKATHON!

Even if you can't walk, you can still contribute by making a donation or by asking friends and family to support the PTA. All donations are appreciated – every dollar counts!  Our on line DONATION shows a goal to achieve for the entire school.  When you register online there is a convenience fee to cover the credit card charges. To avoid fee fill out the registration form and return it with a check in Kidmail.
