All District Cross Country Run A Big Success
(October 22, 2008) For the second year in a row the School District of West Allis - West Milwaukee held the Mile Run for our 5th grade students at the world renowned Milwaukee Mile Race Track. On Monday, October 20, Seventy Three 5th Grade students participated in this year’s event sponsored by the Physical Education Department. The event is aimed at teaching our children about the importance of physical fitness and to familiarize them with the sport of Cross Country. Students competed in separate Boys and Girls runs followed by a Fun Run for any parents, staff, volunteers, or community members who wished to show their running ability. Congratulations to all the students who chose to run in this year’s event! We would also like to thank the volunteers, staff, and especially the Milwaukee Mile for making this a memorable event for our students.
