Town Center at Aurora Gives Nearly $13K to APS
Part of “Cash for Class” Program

Several APS schools will be recognized Friday as part of the “Cash for Class” program at the Town Center at Aurora. The fundraiser helps APS students earn money to improve their schools by honoring their scholastic achievements.

The top three elementary, middle and high schools with the most points will be awarded cash prizes (first place - $2,500, second place - $1,000, third place - $750) in the Cash for Class award ceremony with APS Board of Education President Matt Cook. The public and media are invited to attend the event, which will be held at Center Court.

Since September, APS students have been earning points by bringing in report cards, college acceptance letters, attendance records and Town Center at Aurora receipts to Guest Services.
