Hello!
Your child has made the Cross Country team! We are thrilled to coach them.
Here are some details that I hope you find helpful.
You should have received an email from EMA confirming your child's enrollment on the team. Please review and also check your junk mail.
The meet is Oct 5 at Centennial Park. The school will have buses for our athletes but they need to pack lunch, snacks and water. I would also suggest dressing FOR THE WEATHER and in layers, we will go even if it is raining. If there is extreme weather, a cancellation will be announced on Twitter at 6am.
Here are the distances: Grade 2 (1 kilometer and no qualifying for future races).
Grade 3 (1.5 k and can qualify for conference finals but NOT city finals)
Grade 4 and 5 ( 2 K and can qualify for both conference and city finals)
The top 50 runners qualify to move on and the results will be announced electronically after the race.
WE NEED VOLUNTEERS for the meet day(s) - Please email Shannon if you can help in any way.

Here is our practice schedule: Day 2 & 4 Lunch Recess after they eat (11:25) and Day 3 7:50am
Conference Finals are Oct 17 and City Finals are Oct 25 and only qualifying runners will attend.
Thanks, Shannon, Mr. Fisher and Ms. Campbell.
