Pathfinder Fitness Challenge

The annual Pathfinder Fitness Challenge (PFC) will be held this Friday, October 12.  The students are excited and have all committed to run and/or walk for a 30 minute period of time on this day.  If you would like to come out and run/walk with your child, please feel free to do so.  If you are not able to run/walk, you can also come out and serve as a cheerleader.  Check with your child's homeroom teacher to verify the time your child will be participating in the PFC.  Please also take a moment to watch this brief video from some of our PRE students who want to share with you (in English and Spanish) a bit more information regarding the PFC.
