Any 7th, 8th, or 9th grade student interested in joining the Jr. High Cross Country team for the 2026-2027 school year should join the Schoology Group with the access code: 7WRWQ9KNN2. There is no sign-up; you just need to complete your ATS Portal by August 12th. Here is a link to show you how to set up the ATS Portal:

Practices are held Monday-Friday, from 3-4:30, at Landisville Middle School. A shuttle bus will provide transportation from CMS to LMS after school. Pick-up will be at the LMS Cafeteria Entrance. We will have some voluntary runs over the next few weeks if you are interested. These will be posted on our Schoology Group.  

Attention CES Parents/Guardians,

Coaches (male or female) are needed for Girls on the Run this fall! We also welcome junior coaches (high school age). 

Are you looking for a meaningful way to make a difference in the lives of young girls? Consider becoming a Girls on the Run coach! No previous coaching experience is required—just a willingness to encourage, inspire, and have fun.

As a Girls on the Run coach, you'll help girls:

• Build the confidence to be themselves and love who they are.
• Shine in their own unique way (we call this activating their Star Power!).
• Encourage others to embrace who they are.
• Develop valuable life skills like understanding and managing emotions, handling peer pressure, and celebrating each other's differences.

Girls on the Run is more than a running program; it's an opportunity to empower girls with the confidence, character, and skills they need to thrive both on and off the course.

If you're interested in becoming a coach or would like to learn more, we'd love to hear from you. Your time and encouragement can make a lasting impact on the lives of our students!
