Bobby Lashley, Richard, Cinthia, The Boogeyman

If it is the first Friday in September it must be Football Friday. Our PE teacher, Mr. Cain, invited community member Bobby Lashley and members of his gym, American Top Team Altitude, which included the Boogeyman from the WWE to come and share their expertise in exercise with our students. Students were excited to meet our visitors and workout during their specials dong jumping jacks, sit-ups, push-ups, and relays. Our visitors were a great inspiration for many students as they tried their best. Read More from APS about this day...

The day ended with a very special surprise visitor to our school. Miles the Denver Broncos mascot ended our NFL Football Friday Pep Rally.

Students and staff had a great time at this years Field Day. Students enjoyed the different activities PE teacher, Mr Cain planned. Students did relays, ran the inflatable obstacle course, twirled hula hoops, jumped rope, created chalk drawings, danced, and stacked cups. It was a great day!
