Last Wednesday was Paramount Elementary's Annual Walk-A-Thon, their biggest fundraiser of the year. Normally it is held right after school, but this time it was held during school so that all students could participate. They were worried that this may mean less parents would be able to come along, but there was a great turnout and once again Paramount proved its parental involvement in school activities is top notch! Maylie and I got there a couple of hours ahead of time to help mark out the course around the neighborhood behind the school.
Then we picked up this little man who was pretty excited to participate in his first Walk-A-Thon as a student!!
Nolan's teacher, Ms. Austin lives right along the walking course so she had bubbles and Popsicles waiting there for all of the kindergartners and their siblings to enjoy. Maylie was quite a fan of this!!
Nolan and I finished the course and then I waited a bit to see the 3rd graders come through and gave a quick hug to Landon. His teacher posted these pictures for us all too see of the kids during the walk since I had to stay with Nolan's class.
Then I waited a bit longer for the 5th graders to come through. Abby had a great time walking with her friends and its hard to believe that this is her sixth and final Walk-A-Thon!!
Here is her 5th grade class along with their teacher Mrs. Crane...
Such a fun group of kids who are all growing up way too fast!!
