Apex Power Up Video

Dear Parents,

Thank you again for all of your help collecting the pledges from the Apex Fun Run! Right now, we have collected 55% of the money and our goal is 100%. Please help us by making sure that all sponsors have paid online or by check. You can check to see who has paid by going to the “My Pledges” tab for your student at www.apexfunrun.com.

Also, any class that reaches 100% collected will be earning a special class award from their teacher.

If you have any questions about pledges or need your student’s access code, please contact the school or email Apex at info@apexfunrun.com.

Thanks for making this a great success and helping us reach our goal!
