How does the Marathon work?
On September 8th family Marathon packets will be sent home with your youngest child on the main campus. Preschool packets will be sent home separately on September 7th and 8th. There will be envelopes, with your child(ren)’s name and turn-in dates, in your packet. Thursdays are the “turn-in” days. Below are the turn-in dates:
September 14th
September 21st
September 28th
October 5th
October 12th
Each classroom has a marker showing their classroom goal and the office will have the school-wide goal.
There are weekly incentives for students (details to come). Some weeks, we also have classroom incentive goals!
Grand Prize winners will be announced at the Celebration on October 13th!
If the goal is reached, the All-School incentive goal will be performed at the Celebration on October 13th!
What happens on Marathon Day?
In the afternoon, we gather in the playground area for our Marathon prayer. Then we make an announcement to start the walk, per grade level and classroom teacher.
The groups walk with their teacher.
The walk is on a paved trail by our main campus, and it is about 1.5 miles round trip.
When we return, we all gather in the gym for refreshments, announce our grand prize winners, update our grand total and if we reach our all-school goal the incentive will be performed!
There will be a form sent home with your student, regarding the Marathon day. That is where you will inform the teacher that you will be walking with your student for the Marathon.
