Harlan Elementary School recently held the first Fitness Fair for the school year. Students in Ms. Wilson’s Health & PE classes participated in over two days of fitness. On Day 1, students moved through fitness stations - BMI & Body Fat %, Grip Strength, Sit & Reach, Sit-Ups, and Bear Crawl and participated in a balance station as well as a blood pressure/pulse ox station. On Day 2, students attempted to walk a mile (30 laps) around the gym and participated in a lesson on the sugar and fat content in foods, portion sizes, and healthy vs. unhealthy foods. Students received a healthy snack at the end of the lesson. The HES Fitness Fair was held in collaboration with Mrs. Ledford and PRI - Partners for Rural Impact with community volunteers from ARH, the 4H Extension Office, the Southeast KCTCS Medical Assistant Program, Save the Children, 21st Century, and the HISD FRYSC. Several other staff members also volunteered their time to help make the Fitness Fair a success. It was definitely a team effort from all students, teachers, and volunteers!

📝🧮 Geometry classes worked around Dr. Edens's classroom today practicing writing proofs. Students were rotating between problems, checking previous work and completing next steps in proving statements using the two-column proof method.
The Geometry classes are close to ending their 2nd Unit for the year and are quickly building essential skills in becoming expert mathematicians 🤓
Keep up the good work Dragons! 🐉
