We are excited to again be offering our student "Mileage Club" (Running Club) in partnership with Mary Greeley Medical Center, beginning Monday, March 24th through Friday, May 16th!

"Mileage Club" is for students in TK-6th Grade and takes place during lunchtime recesses (during the school day) 3 times per week. "Mileage Club" takes place on our northeast outdoor track. With parent volunteers on hand, students record each lap that they run by scanning their individual lanyard with a QR Code on an iPad tracking system. Students earn special recognition and "milestone" prizes based on the total mileage that they accrue.

We are looking for parents and grandparents to help us run "Mileage Club" iPads on the following days and times, please feel free to sign-up for as many volunteer slots as you would like to.

Volunteers must check-in and check-out at the main office. Thank you!
