There’s lots of reasons to get to school, but being a part of the Pig Races is tops on the list at Lewis & Clark Elementary. Each month classes work to meet, or beat, their attendance goals and earn a spot in the Trailblazer Pig Races. Winner gets the best prize of all: Bragging rights for one month.
Did you know that a student who is in school 90 percent of a school year missed about 17 days of growing? Just being at school helps students develop relationships and grow academically. #FZEquipToExcel
