MILERS - Lunch Recess Walking Program

MILERS
Maple Dale’s Lunch Recess Walking Program
 
The Wellness Committee is excited to report that Milers is returning for another school year!  
 
Each Wednesday during lunch recess, students will have the option to walk laps around the blacktopped playground. The program is available to first, second, third and fourth graders. We’ll be walking beginning September 16th 2015 for 10 weeks (weather permitting) and starting up again in Spring March 2nd 2016 for another 10 weeks.
 
Students will have the opportunity to earn foot tokens for each mile they walk.
