Rankin gets AMPED in January!
AMPED (Amplifying Education with Activity). This program gets kids moving before the bell rings. The program begins on Tuesday January 14th and continues through March. Below you will find the grade levels and day you are invited into the gym to participate. This is not a mandatory program but highly encouraged, especially during the wet and slippery winter months ahead. For students who arrive by 8 a.m.,you will be allowed to come into the gym through the lunch room doors and come straight to the gym. Drop off your coats and backpack by your classroom sign in the gym and start jogging.
PLEASE PLAN AHEAD so you have your gym shoes either in your backpack or other arrangements have been made.
If your child eats breakfast at school, they need to do so BEFORE they go to the gym!
