Coyote Fun Run Dec 5th, 2025

Our kids try to beat the clock and run as many laps as they can, and are cheered on by our favorite mascot, Hawky. Please share this link with family and friends to help us raise funds!

One of the best things about Coyote Fun Run is that you can involve family & friends in the donation process! Oftentimes, our fundraisers rely on in-person events, so this is a perfect opportunity to ask grandma & grandpa and other networks for help!

Q&A

Can I volunteer?

YES! Each class will need at least six volunteers to pass out popsicle sticks, run the timer, and bring a healthy snack for the kids to enjoy during their post-run celebration! Parents are encouraged to make signs and cheer on the students from the sidelines, too. All of this should be coordinated through your CLASS PARENT!

Can anyone attend?

While no siblings who aren't students on campus are allowed, any adult can come to cheer on a student — no need to be a registered LAUSD volunteer! Just remember to sign in and out of the main office.

How long is the fun run?

Plan to be at your child's event for at least 30 minutes.
