Students from across the district gathered at the Farmington Sportsplex for the annual Elementary Decathlon, a fitness event focused on health, teamwork and inclusion.
Since 2011, fourth through sixth graders have trained in PE classes for this culminating event, competing in 10 physical challenges that test strength, speed, coordination, and endurance.

“We treat PE just like any other classroom,” said program director Tim Best. “It’s a vital part of supporting the whole child.”
A great day of energy, effort and school pride!
