Eagle Fliers is a PTO-sponsored running program for 4th and 5th graders. 

 

Beginning February 24th, the Eagle Fliers meet every Tuesday after school and participate in various running activities, including team races, relay competitions, and individual runs. The goal of the program is not to be the fastest runner, but to encourage kids to enjoy the outdoors and have fun exercising with their friends, while increasing endurance for a 5K run. The Eagle Fliers program concludes with a 5K race before the Spring Fling in April.

 

All student participating in the Eagle Fliers program are expected to attend weekly practices and compete in the 5k in April. Please ensure the dates below work with your schedule prior to registering.
