Cross Country

The P.E. staff works together to help prepare students to run or jog one mile. The final meet is held at Larz Anderson Park.

Dates: Mid-September to mid-October

Expectations: Students are encouraged to attend as many practices as possible. Students may participate in all practices, but to compete, they must attend at least two practices and be able to run or jog one mile.

Practices: P.E. staff hold practices before and after school a few weeks before the meet. Practices are designed to gradually build cardiovascular endurance, strength, and stamina.

Team Selection: Schools may bring as many participants as appropriate. P.E. staff make team decisions based on student ability, effort, sportsmanship, and participation. A list of participants will be posted one week before the meet.

Permission Slips: Students selected for the meet will receive a permission slip to be completed by a parent/guardian and returned to the P.E. staff.
