Today, we remember and honor the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom. Memorial Day is a time to reflect on the courage, service, and selflessness of those who gave everything for our country.

May we never forget their legacy, and may we continue to live in a way that honors their sacrifice. 🇺🇸

At Midway Elementary, Sharks are runners! 🏃‍➡️🏃‍♀️‍➡️🏃‍♂️‍➡️

As a club, our Sharks ran a total of 4,717 miles — the distance from Midway Elementary to Key West and then back to Kingdom City, Missouri!

This year we had:
🏃‍➡️ 1 student reach 2 marathons
🏃‍♀️‍➡️ 83 students complete their full marathon
🏃‍♂️‍➡️ 205 students achieve their half marathon

A special thank you to our wonderful PTO, whose support makes this event free and accessible to everyone, and to McDonald's for ensuring each student receives a t-shirt when they reach their half marathon goal.

This event would not be possible without the many volunteers who showed up day after day, even when their plates were already full. Thank you for your time, energy, and support — we truly couldn’t do it without you.

Keep running, Sharks! 🦈

Last week 5th grade had Anneka Pawlak from Spokane Regional Clean Air in to teach us about the air we breathe here in Spokane. Students were able to do an investigative experiment to create an air inversion to explain when we get stagnate air in our area. We learned so much!
