Conner's Presidential Award

 

Conner was the only 4th grader at his school to receive the Presidential Award for fitness. This award was signed by President Obama. He was called up with a few other 5th graders to receive this award. In order to qualify for this award, participants must be able to do five different events in a particular time, or a certain amount. For his age group these events included 45 curl-ups in one minute, Shuttle run in 10.3 seconds, 30 sit and reach, one mile in 7 minutes and 57 seconds, and 6 pull-ups.) Conner works very hard to do his best in every area of his life. It is exciting to see him set goals, and then reach them.
