IDEA 5K Events: 2023-2024

IDEA’s Healthy Kids Here Program recognizes that the roots of academic success for our students run far deeper than classroom learning alone. As part of our mission, of becoming the Healthiest District in America IDEA hosts an annual 5K Run/Walk and Healthy Living Expo in each of our large regions to engage our students, families, and the community in a fun, educational opportunity to be active. Our hope is that families, schools, and communities will train for the 5Ks together and develop a habit of being active together.
