Staff Comments It's an amazing idea. It took a lot of team work to get it going and it actually works! Thanks to everyone . I have never been at a school that does anything like this and it's amazing. Especially when we run into runners and bikers giving staff the thumbs up and getting our kids moving! Thank you !! I think it is awesome for the students to have outdoor exercise before coming into school ! I hope we start it up again early in the fall. It also helps build staff community and gives staff a chance to interact with the students on an informal basis and have fun together! We love it. It allows time for community building and shows the importance of wellness .It is a really terrific thing for our schools.
