Marathon Kids at San Saba Elementary

Students at San Saba Elementary have been working on earning miles and running a marathon since August 2023. Marathons are reached by kids finishing miles in achievable increments, or completing minutes of heart-pumping activity. All grade levels from PreK-3 to 4th grade participate every Monday, and currently our little Dillos have earned 5,390 miles. We have some dedicated dillos who choose to spend a portion of their Free Fun Thursday running to earn an extra mile or two. I am very proud of their hard work and determination to earn a Marathon!

SSES students 4th Grader, Jayla Estrada; 3rd Graders: Benjamin Rodriguez, Clara Murray, Benjamin, Kyler Bessent, and Jaiden Rocha; 2nd Grader, Cash Reyes,and Hunter Cox, and 1st Graders Hector Bustamante, Lucia Cuevas, Jocelyn Martinez, and Elizabeth Gonzalez have now joined the students at San Saba Elementary who have completed a Marathon!
