Deer Island Community School Wins Fitness Challenge

For the second year running, Deer Island Community School has placed first and second respectively in the elementary and middle school fitness challenges sponsored by the Saint John Medical Society.  Along with plaques, DICS was awarded a cheque in the amount of $1500 to further promote sport and physical fitness in the school.  During the challenge, the school took part in a daily walking program, whereby teachers, students, and even community members walked for 15 minutes upon the arrival of the morning bus.  As well, students tracked their own activity both in and out of the school.
