SGES is participating in Freedom Walk on Thursday, September 11 at SGES. Students will be walking the track in recognition of the lives lost on 9-11-01 and to honor our military veterans, past and present. We invite you to come and walk with your child during their PE block time. 5th and 6th grade will walk from 8:15-9:15; 3rd and 4th grade from 10:30-12:00; and K-2 from 12:30-1:45. Join us in our support, recognition and tribute. Check out www.ameriasuppoortsyou.mil for more info or click here: Freedom Walk.
INTRAMURALS
Each year, after school Intramurals are offered for students in grades 4-6. The purpose of Intramurals is to teach fundamental skills and work on lead up games and activities to better prepare students for junior high sports. Girls Volleyball begins at the beginning of November, Boys and Girls Basketball is in the months of January and February. A schedule of practices will be available when the season begins, and practices are from 3:30-5:00. Volleyball is held in conjunction with Wamego Parks and Rec, and our teams play in area tournaments. Basketball is not attached to Wamego Parks and Rec, and there are no games or tournaments, only after school practices. All intramurals activities are FREE!! More information will be available as the season approaches.

Clip and save all Boxtops for Education for our school. We receive 10 cents for each boxtop coupon you bring in and use the money for educational and motivational purposes. Last year it helped pay for Body Walk to visit our school and also for Fitness Trail incentives. We also occasionally have contests so keep saving them!!

About your teacher.........
Ms. Schneider, PE Teacher
I have been teaching P.E. at St. George Elementary for 16 years. I also coach high school volleyball and junior high track at Rock Creek. I love my job because I love working with children of all ages, and see them move, be active, smile, learn new skills, laugh, excel, and push themselves harder than they thought possible. I enjoy staying active too, and try to run or bike several times a week. I also play volleyball and softball in my free time. I enjoy and have run various races: 2 mile, 5k, 10k, 10 mile, 1/2 Marathon and a full Marathon. My son Ryan is entering Junior High this year and is very active in sports and school activities.
Well....better run...........
