Hello Howard Dragons,

A letter was sent home last week with information regarding running club and the Martian Marathon. Please note that today is the final day to sign up for the Martian Marathon at the discounted rate. After today registrations will still be accepted, but you will be charged the standard fee.

If your child would like to join running club, please text Nasreen Hider at (313)598-1166. The students do not need to be registered for the Martian Marathon to participate in running club, nor do they need to participate in running club to register for the marathon.

Howard Running Club will begin on March 16th. Grades will be split between two days:

-Monday (Kindergarten through 2nd)

-Wednesday (3rd through 5th)

Training will begin right after school on the designated days and last until 4:30. Please arrive on time for pick up!

Please direct any questions or concerns to Nasreen Hider at (313)598-1166.

If your child would like to join running club, please text Nasreen at the number above and include your child’s first/last name, teacher’s name, and grade.
