When girls feel a sense of pride, they shine differently. From the first practice to crossing the finish line, Girls on the Run (GOTR) girls learn that their self-worth is paramount to all that they do. The lessons in the curriculum help girls unleash their inner superstar and teach them to never let their light dim. Unlock your girl’s limitless potential and join our Robert Frost Elementary’s team this season! Fall 2023 season starts September 7–November 16, Mondays & Thursdays from 3:00pm to 4:15pm. GOTR registration is open! Go to www.embe.org/gotr for more information.
Communities are transformed by great leaders with big hearts. Did you know that 99% of coaches agreed that coaching Girls on the Run (GOTR) was a valuable experience? All you need is a compassion for helping others, availability to meet one a week for 1.5 hours and a desire to see the next generation achieve their dreams! You do not have to be a runner to coach. Contribute to the GOTR mission this season by coaching at Robert Frost Elementary. Fall 2023 season starts September 7 – November 16, Mondays & Thursdays from 3:00pm to 4:15pm.

We finally learned the results of the SD Elementary Honor Choir state auditions. There were well over 500 auditions submitted from around the state and we had 4 students selected from Robert Frost!
