Cougar Climb 2025
Emilia Rios
Hi! My name is Emilia and this is my very first year of school, kindergarten! I’m learning so many new things and having lots of fun. I’m helping raise money for my school because there have been big cuts in our county’s education budget, and we need your help.
Supporting public schools means helping kids like me learn and grow, and making sure our communities stay strong and happy. Thank you for cheering me on and helping my school!

🎉 Welcome to the 2nd Annual Cougar Climb! 🐾
Fundraiser Dates: August 20–28
Get ready, Cotton Creek community—it's time to climb higher than ever before! After an incredible kickoff last year, where we raised $41,000, we're excited to bring back the Cougar Climb, our school’s very own PTO-run fundraiser. Because this event is run entirely by our PTO, 100% of the money raised stays right here at Cotton Creek—supporting our students, staff, and school directly.
Thanks to your generosity last year, we were able to:
✅ Upgrade the flooring in our music and tech classrooms
✅ Add a marble wall for sensory hallway and ball pit to sensory room
✅ Install a brand-new outdoor digital marque
✅ Host PTO events
This year, we’re climbing toward new goals! Funds raised will help provide:
🎉 PTO-sponsored events and classroom grants
🚌 Buses for field trips
🎓 Enriching educational experiences
💻 Tech upgrades & classroom furniture
🖍️ Classroom materials & teacher supplies
Students will enjoy daily videos featuring:
✨ Nightly challenges
🧠 Special lessons from our Social Emotional Learning team
🎁 And fun rewards tied to classroom progress!
We will celebrate the end of our fundraiser on Thursday, Aug 28th 5:30-7:30p with an Ice Cream Peak Party!
