HOW IT WORKS: ​ ​All students, Kindergarten through Fifth grade, earn money for our school by collecting donations for their participation in the school wide Tiger Trot on October 6th.  The run takes place on the Terra Linda track during specials and lasts 20 minutes.  Students can choose to run, jog, or walk. Jamba Juice will provide smoothies for all students after they participate!
