Episcopal School of Knoxville students, ages 3 to fourth grade, were on the move to stay fit, taking part in Covenant Health’s virtual Covenant Kid’s Run Thursday, Nov. 12, at the school, 950 Episcopal School Way along Gilbert Road.
Pansie Evans, ESK’s lower school physical education teacher, organized the school’s event in which students from each grade ran in waves, starting at 1 p.m.
“Each year we participate in the Covenant Kids Run,” Evans said. “It’s normally (held downtown) in March, but because of COVID, they had to postpone it to November (and go virtual).”
“The event normally takes place with other schools, but this year since (Covenant Health wasn’t) able to host it, Pansie reached out to the Covenant Kids director and asked if there was any way we could host it for our kids at ESK,” said Caroline Wood, ESK communications coordinator.
“We had almost 100 percent participation from all of our lower school kids,” Wood said.
