Students in all four D39 elementary schools now have access to a Railyard Fitness System which can be used in a multitude of configurations that support the District’s elementary curriculum and philosophy, which states “movement and activity are essential components of total body wellness and academic achievement.” Because the system is made up of many components, it can be easily dismantled and transported so the two systems will be shared among the four elementary schools. The obstacle courses will develop students’ upper body, lower body and core strength, as well as flexibility and cardio fitness.
