Proceeds raised from VanderDash directly impact our students, teachers, and staff. We want to be prepared to fund playground and classroom improvements, as well as all the wonderful programs that we love at Vanderlyn.

IMPORTANT NOTE WHEN REGISTERING: Please only enter the teacher’s name when registering a current Vanderlyn student.  Parents and other relatives should be registered as a “Parent/Community Member”, NOT under a teacher’s name.  Anyone registered incorrectly under a teacher’s name will be disqualified from the class competition.
