COLOR RUN UPDATE:

Due to the weather forecast and the potential for muddy field conditions, we have decided to reschedule the Ellen Woodside Color Run.

The Color Run will now take place on Friday, March 27, which was our original makeup date.

Moving the event will help ensure a safer and more enjoyable experience for our students, teachers and volunteers.

Our Color Run pep rallies will also move to that week, and we can’t wait to get everyone excited as we get closer to the new date!

Please note: Our 4K students have a field trip scheduled on March 27, so their Color Run will take place on a different afternoon that week. We will share those details with 4K families soon.

Thank you so much for your understanding and continued support of our students and our school. The Color Run is one of our favorite events of the year, and we are looking forward to an amazing day together!
