Fairy Tale day in First Grade! They made enchanted castles out of cups, read fairy tale plays, wrote their own fairy tales, and watch and read many stories!
Starting off a very windy day with Alexis finishing 2nd in Javelin with another personal best throw and finishing off the day with Luke crossing the line well ahead of the rest of the field in the 3200m provided solid bookends for another fantastic day for the team. Aiden continued doing a great job improving in the shot put with his best throw of the season, the boys 4x800 turned in a dominant performance, Taryn picked up a nice victory in the 300 hurdles, and Dakota's 3rd place finish in a varsity 1600 as a freshman is a big confidence boost. As we head into the Prairie View meet, we know the competition level will continue to increase as the championship meets at the end of the season get closer. Another seven personal best performances this week is a good sign of things to come.
