About:
The Arlington Student Athletic Council runs a Sports Carnival each school year for all of the elementary students in the school district. The council along with athletes from all of our varsity teams set up sports experiences for our younger students to participate in. The high school students do an awesome job as role models demonstrating and playing with the elementary students. The event is popular and is of no cost to any of our families.
We do provide the opportunity for people to give donations. The Student Athletic Council votes to determine where the proceeds will go. This year we sent them to the “Friends of Jaclyn” Which is an organization that assists families that have a child with pediatric brain cancer.
We have run the event for several years.
We couple this program with our SAC reading program where our athletes go to the elementary schools in their jerseys and read to our students.
