Mr. Hansen's 5th grade class spent this year running every day to collectively run the distance from Payson to Washington, D.C. The students worked hard and ended up going above and beyond their goal--they made it to Washington, D.C. and onto Miami! The students loved running with Mr. Hansen and learning to set and reach their goals. While they ran, they even helped feed hungry children by earning points for all the steps they took. Way to go, lions! Read more about this incredible experience with Mr.
Thanks for a wonderful school year! Have a fantastic summer! Enjoy the warm weather, sunshine, holidays, and vacations, and stay safe! Go lions!
