FAQs:

Q: My child goes to the After-School Program. Can they go there when Jogging Jaguars ends?

A: Yes. Your child may sign him/herself out at the end of Jogging Jaguars and proceed to the afterschool program in Room 128.

Q: Does my child need to attend every single week?

A: No. We will meet every Monday (see dates on the other side), but it is understood that your child may have other commitments on certain days.

Q: Does my child need experience as a runner?

A: No! All levels are welcomed, and we compete only against ourselves to improve our abilities and increase our endurance. However, Jogging Jaguars is a running club, not an afterschool babysitting or social club.
