We are grateful to Mrs. Pearl, Mrs. Durkin, Mr. Burger and all their parent helpers for making this exciting day possible for our runners. 

Everyone is invited to be part of our track team. It's a great way for both students and parents to enjoy the great weather and build our family spirit.

Our next meet is Sunday May 20 at 9 a.m. at St. Greg's (St. Mary's vs. St. Greg's).
