Legacy Challenge
Description
On September 26th we will host our annual Pennington Blue Jay Legacy Challenge Run. This event includes a 2.5-mile race and a 1-mile fun run/walk. The goal of this race is to raise money for a scholarship fund created in honor of Officer Philip Michael Pennington, who our school was named after in September 2000. Officer Pennington was shot and killed while serving our community as a member of the Special Weapons and Tactics, or SWAT Team. Our school strives to uphold his character through our high standards and character education. His memory lives through our students as they strive for excellence in education.
