Fun Run

Fairfax County Public Schools sent this bulletin at 04/02/2019 05:00 PM EDT

Our Oak Hill fun run program kicked off yesterday with an exciting Pep Rally and we are thrilled about this year’s program where every Oak Hill student can participate! We’ve asked the Fun Run experts at Boosterthon to power our two-week Fun Run program, making our fundraising simpler and more fun. Our Fun Run includes EVERY student in a fun, fitness event that focuses on character.

This year, our entire school is raising funds for a new outdoor classroom and we NEED YOUR HELP!  All funds raised will go towards purchasing weather resistant tables and benches and an outdoor shade structure for students and staff to access as a learning space and a break area during hot recess days!   

Here’s how you can support Oak Hill:

  • Register your student on funrun.com by searching “Oak Hill”  Then, use funrun.com to log pledges for your child.
  • Reach out to sponsors. And with funrun.com’s smart sharing features, reaching out to sponsors is easier than ever. The easiest way to get pledges is to simply click the Facebook share button on your student’s pledge page. Plus, with a few clicks you can create a custom Student Star video to share on social media. You can also use the Easy Emailer to connect with friends and family. As you gather pledges, be sure to record each sponsor’s e-mail address so they have the opportunity to easily pay for your student’s pledge online via credit card.
  • Ask your child about the MindSpark Mystery Lab Character Lesson of the day! This year’s character program is a S.T.E.A.M theme all about solving problems with character. As they solve mysteries together, five brainy students will encourage our students to live with character. Join along by watching the fun character videos with your child on funrun.com.
  • Come to the Fun Run on April 12th! All students are included in the Fun Run, regardless of financial participation. Remember, students will be running 30-35 laps, and we would love for you to come out and cheer!

Thank you for supporting our school’s outdoor classroom. We hope to see you next week at the Fun Run!
