TRACK PRACTICES:

For the next 9 days, all classes will be learning and developing techniques to prepare for the annual St.Jude's Track Meet on May 12th here at the school.  Some of the events will include; 60M, 100M, 200M, 400M runs, standing and long running jumps and throwing events.  All students are asked if possible to find 15 mins each evening that they can be more active to prepare.  Some ideas are jogging with your pet, riding your bike, skipping, running on the spot, etc.  Your child can also count their extra curricular activities such as ballet, swimming, or soccer.  This is not intended as extra work for parents but to get students to be more active as the weather continues to improve.
