CONGRATULATIONS TO FIRST IN FITNESS ATHLETES
We would like to recognize and congratulate the members of the 2019 Pleasant Union Elementary First In Fitness Team. These athletes compete at the Northern Area First In Fitness event on March 13 at Southeast Raleigh High School. First In Fitness is a fun and friendly elementary fitness competition where are students will compete against students from other Northern Area Wake County Schools who are in their grade and same gender. Selections for this team are based on physical fitness testing performance during physical education class, maintain a positive attitude and appropriate behavior in all of their classes, as well as maintaining academic performance throughout the year. It is a privilege to be a member of the Pleasant Union First In Fitness Team and the staff and administration are very proud and excited for your child. Questions regarding First In Fitness team and/or the event should be directed to Mr. Stern, PE Specialist.
