If your child has not been to the dentist within the year or is complaining of tooth pain or problems, schedule them an appointment for dental care. Many of these clinics and offices offer sliding-scale fees for both children and adults, making dental care more accessible for those who may be uninsured or underinsured.

The City of Fayetteville is sharing information about their upcoming summer programming. Click here for more information.

We’re officially three months away from the annual Cow Paddy Run on May 16th at Gulley Park! This annual charity race provides a fun, family-friendly fitness opportunity for students and the chance to win a portion of $4,000 in participation prize awards for our school. The Cow Paddy Run is presented by The Spark Foundation, a local nonprofit with a mission to create a positive impact in the community by providing increased access to health and fitness opportunities and education.

The top three Fayetteville elementary and middle schools with the most participants will earn funding to support health and fitness initiatives at their school:

1st Place: $2,000

2nd Place: $1,000

3rd Place: $500

To eliminate financial barriers, The Spark Foundation offers pay-your-age pricing for runners 5 to 12 years old. They also have scholarships for runners that need all registration fees waived. In addition to running, students can also enter a T-shirt design contest. The winning design will be printed on this year’s race shirt and $100 will be awarded to the young artist. Elementary and middle school students are eligible to participate and the deadline for submissions is March 20th. You can download the design template here. Designs can be uploaded and emailed to director@mysparkfoundation.org, or they can arrange for a Spark member to come pick them up from our school.

If you have any additional questions, please contact Coach Easley!

March

The CKH theme for the month of March is Step Up/Courage. This month we are focused on helping students understand that courage is not a magical remedy for fear. Instead, courage is a choice to push through fear, self-doubt, and anxiety to do things that feel hard or frightening. We are partnering with you this month to grow your child’s courage. This month’s activities will help your child understand that courage can equip them to make a positive impact at home, at school, and in the community.
