10 TIPS: BE AN ACTIVE FAMILY

Hey Christie Families-

Check out the link below for some great tips on ways that you can be active together as a family.  Remember that we are models for our children.  Therefore, what better way to model an active lifestyle than by doing it together as a family.   Also, all cubs should be bringing home the September Fitness Calendar.  This is another great option for families to get active together.  Students are encouraged to complete each box with a parent initial indicating completion.  Then at the end of the month, students will turn the completed form to their fitness teachers.  All completed forms will receive a PAWS card and students name will go into a drawing for equipment prizes at the end of each nine weeks.  We appreciate the support from all Christie families as this is the year to create new healthy habits.

Welcome 2018-2019 Christie Cub Families-

Christie Families-

The PE/Fitness teachers are super excited to see all of our last years cubs and new kinder cubs as well.  We've spent the last two weeks learning/reviewing our procedures and expectations.  It is truly going to be an exciting year!  Please make sure to check your child's "Special's Schedule" to note what days they'll have PE/Fitness as these are the days that tennis shoes MUST be worn.  If at any time in the year you have a question, please feel free to contact any of the coaches.
