Michael T. Simmons Elementary

At RunRaise, some of our favorite partnerships start with a recommendation from another school community. This spring, the Michael T. Simmons PTA in Tumwater, Washington is teaming up with RunRaise for a school-wide Fun Run.

About Michael T. Simmons Elementary

Michael T. Simmons Elementary, home of the Wolf Pups, is part of the Tumwater School District in Tumwater, Washington. The school is named for Michael T. Simmons, who founded Tumwater in 1845 as the first American settlement north of the Columbia River. A school has served students on this site since 1937, and today's building was fully modernized in 2007. Michael T. Simmons is a PBIS school, focused on positive behavior and a supportive culture for every student.

About the Michael T. Simmons PTA

The Michael T. Simmons parent organization is an all-volunteer group dedicated to student enrichment and family-focused activities. Its volunteers fund experiences that make the school year special, and the Fun Run gives the whole Wolf Pup community a fun, active way to pitch in.

The 2026–27 Fun Run

The campaign is planned for spring 2027, with a few weeks of fundraising leading up to an all-school Fun Run where every grade level gets to run, cheer, and celebrate together.
