Let’s go!!The Golden Shoe for the week of October 27, 2025 at Whitehall Preparatory and Fitness Academy are our wonderful 6C students. This group of sixth graders continues to shine during fitness and works extremely hard on their soccer footwork. They love learning the footwork skills and then bringing them into their small sided games. If they are successful performing a soccer move before they score, it counts for 2 points instead of just one. Keep up the amazing job 6C. The sky is the limit for you.
Whitehall Preparatory and Fitness Academy students are learning the fastest growing sport in America: Pickleball. Currently they are working on small "dinking" games to help with scoring and soon they will be playing full court. Their enthusiasm and sportsmanship has been amazing.
The Golden Shoe for the week of October 17, 2025 at Whitehall Preparatory and Fitness Academy is Ms. J’s 1st Grade class. These amazing group of first graders excelled this week in their agility games. They work on overall coordination and spatial awareness during soccer and learned a new fun cool-down game called detective. Way to go 1st grade.
