Dwight-A-thon is Dwight Elementary School's BIGGEST fundraiser.

 

CLICK HERE FOR DWIGHTATHON 2026!!

 

Dwight-a-Thon is a walk/run that takes place here at Dwight every fall, and is our largest fundraiser of the year, accounting for nearly all of our PTA budget.  

 

Every dollar raised will fund critical programs that enrich our school such as Teacher Grants, Author Visits, Dwight Reads, Field Trips, Green Team, Sunrise Sports, 5th Grade Activities, SEPTA, International Night, Teacher Appreciation, School Supplies, Library Enrichment, Dwight Writes, Bingo Night, School Beautification and so much more!  

 

In order to meet our budget needs, we are asking that EACH STUDENT raise $155. We encourage you to approach your parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles and neighbors to solicit support for Dwight! Some parents have asked what the PTA spends per child; this year we are spending $200 per student for the entire year. 

 

The 2026 appeal will run from October-December.
