Fort Zumwalt’s Elementary Schools are excited to continue their partnership with Fort Zumwalt’s Education Foundation in support of the Grow Your Own Teacher Foundation.
We ask you, the parents/caregivers, to join us in encouraging our students to be active, promote reading and practice being a good friend to all.
Students will be asked to read 26 developmentally appropriate books (30 pages = 1 book, if reading chapter books), complete 26 good deeds/acts of service and run 25 miles individually and then complete their final 1.2 miles on race day, tentatively Saturday, April 24, 2027. This will add up to a full marathon distance of 26.2 miles. The program starts in October 2026 and runs through race day on (tentatively) April 24, 2027.
As Better Together Marathon participants, your child(ren) will:
▪Have a Better Together coordinator at his/her school- Ms. Chapie
▪Receive a journal to record each book, good deed and mile
▪Participate in a 1.2 mile fun run scheduled at Fort Zumwalt North High School tentatively on Saturday, April 24, 2027
▪Every Better Together participant will receive a t-shirt to wear on race day
▪Every Better Together participant will receive a medal after they cross the finish line on race day on April 24th
There is a $15 fee for your child to register as a participant that has to be paid either via FOCUS or by Check.
