Soar on Skimmers Fun Run

Where Every Step Sparks School Spirit!

SPRINT TO OUR GOAL

Our goal for this year’s event is $75,000. We are need every SIES Student to sign up for this amazing event! Our total annual goal is $250,000 to fund technology classes, the Spanish program, GreenHeart Project, staff professional development, and Aquarium “Think Tank” maintenance and stocking.

Classes that have the most participation or raise the most funds will be recognized by the Friends Group. IF we reach our goal of $75,000, Ms. Cassell, Ms. King and Friends President, Paige Hauff will become a human ice cream sundae; yes you read that correctly!

Where is the event taking place for SIES Students only?

The run/walk is for SIES Students only. The sidelines are for parents and family friends so get ready to cheer. The one thing we ask is that furry family friends stay home for the day. Meet your Skimmer on the beach directly behind the school at:
