Don't forget to pick up a week's worth of meals for your child on Monday at any of our cafeterias. Monday's food will be hot, and the rest will be frozen to re-heat throughout the week. The meals include fruit, milk and favorites such as hamburgers, tacos, and maybe even chicken and waffles, depending on the cafeteria. You will not need your student's barcode/lunch number tomorrow, but you will on Sept. 8. (You can get yours from your school). You can go to any school.

As schools will be closed for the next few weeks, our dedicated team at GOTR HQ has developed "GOTR at Home" activities to help support families as they navigate this challenging time and to keep our girls connected to the valuable learning goals of our program. Current GOTR families be on the look out for emails from our council.

The safety, well-being, and health of our girls and coaches remains our top priority. Based on announcements from all of the school districts we serve, we have made the necessary yet disappointing decision to suspend all Girls on the Run practices effective immediately.
We are working to ensure that our GOTR girls get the most out of this season when school resumes and will use this time to evaluate possible program and season schedule modifications. We are also assessing the feasibility of our 5K scheduled for April 25th and exploring alternate end-of-season celebration options for our teams especially if cancelling large events is still recommended at that time.
We will post on social media, our website, and email current GOTR families with information. Please email our director, Anna Katherine Ray, [email protected] with any questions or concerns.
