they would have had 1,080 miles to
go sightseeing.
If you think that is pretty good,
just wait, it gets even more amazing
when we look at class totals also.
The fourth graders (1,772.9 miles),
for example, could have run to Mon-
treal, Canada (1,704 miles) and had
68 miles left over.
The students ofBrady Elementary
have worked extremely hard, and I am
very proud of each and every one of
them. I wish I could list everyone’s
name, but a top 10 list will have to
suffice.
