Cherry Run News October 3

Dear Cherry Run Families,

What an incredible week it has been at Cherry Run ES! We had the joy of starting the week with our annual Field Day, a tradition that brings our entire school community together in celebration of teamwork, fun, and school spirit. Our Cardinals shined as they laughed, played, and created lasting memories with friends and classmates.

This day would not have been possible without the support of our wonderful volunteers. Thank you for giving your time and energy to make Field Day such a success! We are also deeply grateful to our phenomenal PE team, Mrs. Dixon, Ms. Coffey, and Mr. Newhard, whose creativity, dedication, and enthusiasm turned the day into a truly unforgettable experience for our students.

We wish you a wonderful, restful fall weekend ahead!

Maura Donahue and Miranda Goss
