Fairfax Costume Race
On Tuesday 10-4-2016 the cross country team competed in a costume race at the Fairfax Middle School.  This is one of the most fun races that the team attends over the season. Unlike all the other races, middle school boys and girls of all ages run together. It made for a huge crowd of very colorful athletes.

For Snacks Today We Have Pears
  • A medium pear has about 100 calories.
  • Although pears mature on the tree, they ripen best off the tree.
  • Every pear from the United States is picked by hand.
  • Pears used to be called “butter fruit” for its soft, butter-like texture.
  • Pear tree wood is often times used to construct musical instruments, furniture, and other wooden décor.






BREAKFAST MENU
Students may take two fruit servings with each meal. They must take at least one.
