A lot of exciting things are going on with our Trailblazers! A couple of weeks ago 7th Grader Joanna Rodriguez came in 6th place in her age group (12-14 Year Olds) and 12th place overall (Out of 200 girls) at the Spring Forward Race at Van Cortlandt Park. She ran 1.5 miles in exactly 12 minutes. Our track team ran in the Run As One 4 Mile Race for Lung Cancer at Central Park. It was their toughest race to date, but they all finished in good time!

Our 5th and 6th Grade Basketball and 7th Grade Soccer seasons have kicked off off. Click Here for schedules.
