We are BACK, Brookhaven Running Club. Our goal is for our students to run 50 miles this school year. Participating students will be able to run 2x a week on Tues and Thurs during their recess. The coordinator Mrs. Cecilia Sohi and her team will track the daily distance throughout the year. Students are allowed to sign up throughout the year. We have a plaque in the office that would LOVE more names to join our 50 miles. *Please have your student return this form to their teacher or office by September 20th . This helps with name tags and record keeping.

*Parent volunteer is MUCH needed. 9:35am set up, recess tally marks, 10:15 collecting tags and quick count. Any questions - cecilia.lod3@gmail.com

Permission slips are available in the office or by clicking here.

A warm reminder that every school day counts at Brookhaven Elementary!
