Apex Fun Run is HERE at Jefferson!
We are so excited that our friends at Apex Leadership are coming back!! All of our students and staff had such a blast with their team learning all about Apex GAME ON!
Our students will experience Apex Leaders on campus all week leading up to the Fun Run. Apex leaders will bring daily lessons into the classroom, and hang out during recesses, gym, and lunches! Apex Leaders use kindness and care-based focus on their leadership lessons and skills.
Apex arrives on February 25th and will be on campus for 2 weeks! Our fun run will be March 6th. We will be looking for parental volunteers this year to help hand out water, mark T-shirts as kids lap, and of course help cheer-leading our kids on!!
This year our character and leadership program theme is GAME ON. The interactive lessons discuss how our attitude and our actions, no matter how big or small, can change the future!
Go Getter: Our #ApexGAMEON journey begins with a habit about learning that it doesn’t matter how old you are, a go-getter is someone who takes action every day. We learned: “Don’t wait, be great!”
Appreciate: A game-changing leader is someone who appreciates and finds value in everything! We did a shout out of something we appreciate about our classmates
Move Forward: To focus on the future; overcome fear and understand that failure exists only for the person who gives up. Game-changing leaders do not let the past define their future.
Explore: Game-changing leaders explore the world around them. They must have the courage to try new things and remember that the easiest solution isn’t always the best
Others First: Putting others first means doing things that aren’t always convenient for us. It’s about service and recognizing the needs of others.
Now What: Taking what we learned and putting it into action!

Apex Fun Run Event!
Jefferson Students will be participating in the Fun Run on Friday, March 6th.
We would love to have parent volunteers help us hand out water and check t-shirts as students run laps. Run times are as follows:
Kinder and 1st at 10:00-10:45
4th-5th 11:00 - 11:45
2-3rd 12:45-1:30
We ask that volunteers helping for the fun run do check in at the office and then meet out on the field behind the gym.
