The Simsboro Elementary Fitness Team competed in the annual Lincoln Parish Fitness meet at the Ruston High School girls' gym and outdoor track. The team consisted of all fifth graders this year: Abby Tecuateque-Arias, Terrell Davis, Johnavan Pastor, and Serenity Vasquez. The team competed in seven events: pull ups, shuttle run, curl ups, sit and reach, standing long jump, 50 yard dash, and 600 meter run. Our students worked super hard and accomplished great things!

Our Simsboro Elementary Fitness Team also received the third place trophy at the parish level. They encouraged each other and pushed each other to do their best in each event and we couldn't be more proud of them and all of their achievements! Every one of the fitness team members represented Simsboro School so well with their encouraging words, their best work, and their politeness at the parish meet.
Way to go, Simsboro Elementary Fitness Team!
