Wednesday, May 5th “Workout Wednesday”
We will be promoting Physical Education and Fitness in our school. All staff and students are invited to wear their workout clothes and walk, run, or jog around the playground from 7:35am until 8:10am.
Let’s see how many staff and students can get 1 mile or more in before school starts for the day.
There will be cones set out around the perimeter of the South side of the playground for the 1st and 2nd grade and the 3rd and 4th grade will be walking around the cones on the North side of the playground. 5 times around is equal to 1 mile.
