HJHS! How cool is this? Roadrunner 2.0...Next Level Fitness Opportunities!
We have been planning and preparing for this...The HJHS outdoor fitness area is being installed.
The students are excited to see the equipment going in and are looking forward to being able to increase their physical fitness capacity through outdoor workouts or simply through targeted stretches. Beginner or more advanced, it will not matter. All of our students will be able to make use of and benefit from our new equipment if they so choose.
We can't wait to see the students enjoying this addition to HJHS!
