WHAT IS OLYMPICS DAY ALL ABOUT?

 

Olympics Day is one of the most memorable events for the children of Canyon. It's the only event that the children run. Literally. Olympics Day is a chance for everyone - from the most athletic

to the most cerebral, from the very social, to the very timid - to achieve great things together. Each year we host a storied Olympian to speak to and inspire all our kids. 

 

Olympics Day is a remarkable fundraiser where our kids run with their classmates, by class, to raise money to support school programs (P.E., enrichment, science, art, music, etc.).  It is one of Canyon's BIGGEST fundraisers and every penny raised goes right back to keeping our school #1 in Southern California.
