Perhaps your child came home and told you that he or she did the "turkey trot" at school today. If you're new to our school, you might be wondering what the Turkey Trot is all about. The Turkey Trot is a wonderful Lexington Public School tradition. From Monday, October 6th until Thursday, October 9th, children run/walk laps around our school and in exchange they are given ballots to enter into a "turkey" draw. In Kindergarten, we go as a class and stick together. During our assembly on Friday a "frozen turkey" winner will be drawn from each class. It is so much fun to see the children be active and celebrate Thanksgiving. To add to the excitement, the song "Let's Turkey Trot" by Little Eva is played over our PA system each morning. A big thanks to our Parent Council who has generously donated turkeys for this event.
