Olympian in the House
On February 27, a fifth and third grade class got a visit from an Olympic athlete. Milan Ristic, a hurdler from Serbia, came to visit and share his story of how you get to the Olympics. His story included how he balances his studies and workouts. We measured how high the hurdles are and got to see his spikes! This visit was made possible through the efforts of Dr. Patrick Foo, UNCA and great friend to Ira B. Jones Elementary! Many thanks to both gentlemen! We eagerly anticipate the 2020 Olympics to cheer Milan on!
