First Inside, Then Out


Last week The Running Club
was
INSIDE, due to the rainy weather.

This week the weather "cooperated"
with Mr. Jennings' plan to get
OUTSIDE to Loeb Field.
It was pretty hot and sunny.
You just can't keep a good runner down!

A Monday to Remember

It was a very special day. 
We were under beautiful, sunny skies.
Our glasses worked perfectly.
Thankfully it wasn't too cloudy.
The shadows deepened around us.
No one wanted to miss this!
It was amazing!
Did you join in on the fun?
Together we shared in history!
It was a family affair......
......with mothers & daughters.
We were stationed all around the school.
No matter our ages, witnessing 
the moon moving over the sun was grand!
August 21st, 2017 was a day to remember.
