The Fun Run is THIS WEEK!

The run will take place on this Thursday 10/19 for Preschool, PreK, and Grades 5, 6, & 7 and this Friday 10/20 for Kindergarten, and Grades 1, 2, 3, 4, & 8. 

Last year the Fun Run raised over $60,000 for our school - with your help we can exceed that this year! Students simply register at funrun.com and get pledges from family and friends. We have donations from as far away as: Canada, France, South Korea, and the U.K.!

Homerooms that have 100% of students registered (regardless of pledges) will earn a dress down Tag Day! And the top 3 homerooms will earn a treat from the Kona Ice Truck on Wednesday, October 25, 2023!!

There are a few Volunteers slots available here.
