THE JAG JOG at Silver Spring International Middle School 

Do you never want to buy wrapping paper, cookie dough, or coupon books again? Would you like to support academic and cultural enrichment programs and student scholarships?


Please support JAGAMANIA, third annual school fun run at Silver Spring International Middle School, taking place on Tuesday, November 13, 2018.   Take a look at our awesome promotional video!


The Jag Jog is a Fun Run for the whole school and a fundraiser for the PTSA.   As a bonus, our students will “jog” through colors and go home with a colorful, festive T-shirt.  Our students will raise funds for their school by asking for pledges from family and friends; supporters can pledge a flat amount or make a per lap donation.  

We know there may be some children whose families and friends are not able to pledge money for the Jag Jog, and that’s OK — everyone participates in the way they are able. It is also a great community event for students, teachers, and administrators— and, of course, anyone who wants to come out and cheer on the kids!

Last year, SSIMS supporters helped us raise $17,000, which led to the dunk tanking of school security assistant Mr. Kelly!  We're planning something equally fun for school leaders this year and our goal is $20,000. 


With funds from prior year Jag Jogs, we have provided crucial support for students, such as Kindle tablets and audiobooks for use with ESOL students; new musical instruments and replacement parts for our music program; a printer for our photography classes; and the founding of our first-ever National Junior Honor Society Chapter. Through last year’s flag project, the “hub” of our school - the Media Center - now prominently displays a flag from each country for each of our students. SSIMS is proud to be a truly international school! 


We are hoping this year's Jag Jog fundraising will be so successful that we won’t need to decline any requests from SSIMS staff to offer opportunities to enhance the students' experience at SSIMS.  

Support the Jag Jog today! You can do so here on this page, or your student can create their own page at the "start your own fundraiser to support this organization" link below. We'll have incentives for the grade and the 1st period class that have the best participation so please include that information in the comment box if you can (no worries if you don't know that information, we can check it for you!).
