Weekly Update for 05/02/16

Apex Fun Run
This Tuesday is the beginning of our Apex Fun Run spring fundraiser, which will last 2 weeks. The Apex Fun Run’s theme this year is DREAM, which stands for the following:
Dive In!
Resourceful!
Elevate Others!
Attitude Check!
Make A Difference!
 This is a fabulous fundraiser as it promotes leadership, teamwork, and healthy lifestyles.  All students will get a t-shirt, daily silicon wristbands, and each day our Apex leaders will be visiting each class with a brief leadership message.  Classroom teachers get 10% of what their class brings in to spend on items for their classroom and/or student incentives.  Students will have a pep rally onTuesday,  which will be our kickoff for our two-week event!
