Forsyth School

A family-favorite event, students in Jr-K and above ran the mile on the track at Francis Olympic Field on the Washington University in St. Louis campus on Thursday, May 21!

Jr-K students are especially fun to watch for their first year on the massive track! In addition to running, these young students are learning and practicing how to stay in the inside lanes, use sticks to count their laps, and pace themselves—and SO much more! It was awesome to see of all ages supporting their classmates as running buddies, and with lots of clapping and cheering!

Back on Friday, April 24, students in Grades 5 and 6 participated in the Jim Hoots Memorial Track Meet at Saint Louis Priory School, which brings together fifth- and sixth-grade students from different Independent Schools of St. Louis / ISSL.

Special thanks to Coaches Justin Harris and Jen Ulsas for organizing and continuing these important traditions!
