Swim Lessons for Second Graders 
With the addition of a swimming pool to Henderson Park which is right behind our school our second grade students have the opportunity to take swim lessons. Coaches Hill, Garcia, and Styers take the students to the pool for swimming lessons every day for the first and last six weeks of school. The children learn different skills; some students are scared of the water at the beginning, but are playing and having fun by the end of their lesson.
Track & Field Day 
Every April our students have the opportunity to participate in our annual Track & Field Day. With the building of the new Henderson Park our students are able to stay closer to school instead of traveling to Jane Long Middle School. Track & Field Day activities include potato sack races, tug-o-war, standing long jump, bean bag toss, softball toss, sit-ups, shuttle run and many more activities. This is a fun event that the whole school including all staff members participate in. Students even wear special t-shirts on this day that they can wear as part of their everyday uniform. We have several local buisness that donate items for this event such as fruit, bottled water, and powdered lemonade. If you or know someone that would like to volunteer to help with this special event
please contact Coach Hill.
Favorite Fruit Day 
The last day of every six weeks students have the opportunity to bring their favorite fruit to PE class. Students get to eat their favorite fruit and do a special activity in PE that day. A special Thank You goes to HEB for donating fruit for this day.
