On October 9. 2024, 280 Jr. Raiders stepped up to the starting line of the annual Convertino-Paniccia 5th and 6th grade cross country meet at Proctor Park!

Representing all ten of our elementary schools, these athletes gave it their all in the challenging 1-mile race. Though the weather was a bit gloomy and wet, the side lines roared with cheers from parents, members of the community, and school staff cheering on our Jr. Raiders. The race was hard, but our Jr. Raiders showed incredible determination and perseverance, crossing the finish line with pride and some tears of joy! Congratulations to all of our runners!
