Flossmoor Hills Girls Share Their Soles.

Flossmoor Hills School has been participating in a national, after-school program for girls in 3^rd through 5^th grades called GIRLS ON THE RUN.  The 12-week curriculum combines self-esteem and social skills lessons, with a train–to-run exercise program is voluntarily staffed by Flossmoor Hills.  As a celebration for completing the program, Flossmoor Hills’ girls will join thousands of other Chicagoland girls on June 9^th at Soldier Field for the Girls on the Run 5K Race!  The program also includes a community service component.  Fifth grader, Leah Brooks, is pictured collecting gently used shoes for Share Your Soles; a non-profit charitable organization servicing the needy here and abroad.  Additional community services projects were completed to benefit the Ronald McDonald House, a women’s shelter and a nursing home!  

Congratulations to the girls of Flossmoor Hills School for taking positive steps towards improving their minds and bodies and helping their community!
