Englewood Elementary!

🔥 Our 44th Annual EAGLE RUN is THIS FRIDAY, 2/20! 🔥

Englewood Elementary is gearing up for one of our MOST exciting traditions of the year—our 44th Eagle Run! All students will be hitting the track for a fun, energetic, community-building day… and we need YOUR support to make it a huge success!

Each student has their own fundraising page—share it with friends, family, and social media to help them raise money and earn awesome prizes! The top 3 earners win prizes, the top class in each grade gets a Chick-fil-A party, and students earn raffle tickets for both laps completed and money raised.

Support their fundraising here:
👉 https://app.99pledges.com/fund/ENGLEWOODEAGLERUN44?home_v2=true

The Eagle Run is also a powerful way to give back to our school. As students run their laps, every step helps raise donations that directly support important programs, activities, and resources. Thanks to last year’s incredible generosity, we were able to replace the large picnic table outside the cafeteria for family lunches, upgrade the Lowe’s track play area with a gaga pit, and donate $11,000 to the Media Center for new books and to the Art Department. How amazing is that?!

🏃 Eagle Run Start Times — Friday, February 20th
(Please arrive early to check in at the office with your ID.)
1st Grade: 8:50 AM
Kindergarten: 9:35 AM
2nd Grade: 10:20 AM
4th Grade: 11:05 AM
5th Grade: 11:50 AM
3rd Grade: 1:05 PM

Let’s cheer loudly, show our Eagle pride, and make this the best Eagle Run yet!
Share the link, spread the word, and let’s help our students soar higher than ever!
