Wow! With Spring break and now WASL testing
the month of April goes zooming by. We've finished up our
Olympics competitions and some very exciting and close competitions
they were.
We are running through our fitness testing sequence
currently. We test students four times per year in four
categories of fitness. Strength, Flexibility, Endurance, and
Speed. The emphasis is placed on what are you as an
individual capable of doing and how much can you improve. We
do not make this an inter-student competition. Students
compare and push one another of their own accord, sometimes.
It's exciting to see the enthusiasm and pride when individuals
exceed their own goals.
We'll be starting to prepare our 5th/6th graders for the annual 5/6
Track meet. We provide an introduction and training in a
variety of track and field disciplines and then students compete by
grade and gender. Our track meet day will be during the first
week of June. Parents and family are welcome to attend and
cheer the athletes on. We'll send home notice when the date
is set.
