Wild Rebels Fun Fest Fundraiser – October 9th

Calling all WILD REBELS! Get ready for Fun Fest 2026, our biggest fundraiser of the year. This year our goal is to raise $110,000 for the school. The money pays for the programs, supplies and equipment that help our school run smoothly and effectively, and it benefits ALL students at American Academy Motsenbocker.

Where Do the Fundraising Dollars Go?

  • Academic funds: An annual commitment of approximately $65,000 that goes directly back to the school to help purchase and/or maintain the programs, supplies and equipment that make our school run smoothly and effectively for Middle School, Elementary, and KindiePrep grades. These include annual software licenses for classrooms and STEM programs, professional development for teachers with in-service meals during training, classroom supplies budgets, athletic and school spirit expenses, contributing funds to field day activities, and more.
  • Community building events: The Veteran’s Day breakfast, kindergarten parent reception, Father & Daughter event, Mother & Son event, parent breakfasts, Trunk or Treat, teacher appreciation lunches, etc.
  • One-off projects that come up as the year progresses.
  • Playground upgrade: Removing the wood chips from the playground area and replacing them with a poured rubber surface.

We have an annual fundraising goal of $125,000 for the entire school year, and this fall fundraiser is our largest fundraising event. The more we can chip away at the annual goal, the less fundraising we need to do throughout the school year.
