Third Quarter Perfect Attendance!!

These students LOVE school so much, they never miss!!  We are down to only a handful of students (and only represented by Kindergarten and 2nd grade) who have had perfect attendance and we want to thank them and their families for making it to school every day so far.  Congratulations on doing a great job, we love seeing these smiling faces every day!

Morning Marathon

MORNING MARATHON CLUB

Students, staff, parents and friends are invited to join the fun as we begin the 7th Annual Morning Marathon Club (MMC)!  We will meet 7:10-7:40a.m., Mondays through Thursdays on the high school track to walk/jog/run supervised ¼ mile laps.  Our first day will be March 27, 2017.  We will NOT meet April 17, due to no school on that day.  Our last day will be May 18.  Registration is now open for our finale: the Panhandle GOTR 5K & Fun Run on May 20, 2017!  (MUST register ONLINE at www.gotrnebraska.org by APRIL 6, to guarantee t-shirts!! All runners under 16, must have Run Buddy)

The goal of this program is to give each participant a positive start to the day, establish a routine of exercise and live a healthy lifestyle.  This will help them build confidence and self-esteem that comes from setting goals and crossing the finish line.  Lace up those running shoes and let’s get moving!

The first day each student participates, s/he must have a signed permission form.  If you would like your child to get a shirt and be eligible for prizes, please return contract & form with check (made out to Chadron Public Schools).  Deadline to order these will be April 13, 2017.  

Days of participation are defined as follows:  CMS students must complete 6 laps, CIS students must complete 5 laps, and Primary:  2nd graders must complete 4 laps, 1st graders & Kinders=3 laps. Students will have the opportunity to reach 2 levels:  Mini Marathon or Marathon.  Students must complete 16 days of participation to reach the Mini Marathon level.  Upon achieving this goal, s/he will receive a MMC sackpack.  Students must complete 24 days of participation to reach the MARATHON level.  Upon achieving this goal, s/he will earn a Morning Marathon hooded sweatshirt!

Some specifics about the Morning Marathon Club:

Each student who participates must have a signed permission form (and $10 to be eligible for prizes).  Form must be turned into Mrs. Rischling before participating – just bring it to the  track! (Scholarships available for those in need.)  Questions?  Contact Mrs. Rischling 430-4122
