STEWARDSHIP DAY PLAN
Whole-School Walking Wednesday. The goal is to have an entirely empty parking lot. Every person who can walk/bike to school is encouraged to do so. Family members are also encouraged to join the walking school bus groups. We will be walking between 6:45 to 7:30 AM. Link to walking routes and meet up times. The regular motorized school buses will still be circulating to collect children who cannot walk, primarily Prek/K students. Teachers & staff will park off of school property at the following sites, the further away the better to prevent overcrowding: Holy Angels Hospital Parking Lot Park and Ride Teachers and staff for whom walking is not an option should contact Ms. Cavallo to schedule shuttle transportation from a nearby parking lot. Stewardship Assembly in the Gym.

PICTURES AND REPORTS
WALKING PATH LAP CONTEST RESULTS The results are clear. The Voyagers are the outright winners with about 3000 laps total. Team Discovery is second with about 2000 laps total. For winning the overall contest, the Voyagers earned 1 hour of pool party time on June 17th. For coming in second, Team Discovery earned 1 hour of smoothie bike time on June 17th. Congratulations to both hard-walking teams. Some of you may not know that the Voyagers have won this contest three years in a row. Discovery has always been a close runnerup. These are two amazing and committed teams.
Here is a picture from the Voyager's winning group last year. A picture from this year's team will be taken on Monday.
