APEX Fun Run Fundraiser

Dear Families,

Today was a very exciting day as we kicked off our Apex Leadership Program with a Virtual Pep Rally! Students learned that over the next two weeks they will get the chance to help our school (and their classrooms) by earning pledges for our Fairmont Fun Run on Thursday, September 23.

The best part is that Apex introduced this year's leadership theme: AS ONE - which reminds students to Aspire, be a Self-starter, Own it, see each day as a New day, and Energize!

See the video below to learn more!

We're excited to teach our students these leadership lessons and we're also excited about the health and fitness activities that they'll get to participate in. Apex athletes will be on campus to talk with students each day and will also be playing games with our kids during lunch and recess.

Your child will be coming home with a pledge kit today or tomorrow. This pledge kit has all the information regarding the program inside, so be sure to open it up and take a look. One of our favorite parts about Apex is the inclusive program: every student is included, regardless of financial participation! Whether they get pledges or not, each student will receive a completion tracker and a wristband for each day that represents that day’s leadership lesson. We encourage you to ask your child about each wristband at home and to continue the conversation about our leadership lessons.

Be on the lookout for daily updates regarding our pledge totals along with other information regarding the big event next week.

Thank you!

The Fairmont Staff & Handstand Hannah
