Many of our school community's initiatives and efforts are only possible because of parent volunteers and supporters like you!

HudsonWay Flyers

In partnership with Rising New York Road Runners

Head Coach: Jason Fletchall (Parent, Mandarin Grade 1, Preschool 2A)
Assistant Coaches: Conor O'Kane (Parent, Spanish Preschool 2s, Kindergarten & Grade 2), Steve Blatz (Parent, Mandarin Preschool 3), Thomas Hou (Parent, Mandarin Grade 2 & Preschool 2A), Shudan Wang (Parent, Mandarin Grade 2 & Preschool 2A), Shannon Chirone (Parent, Spanish Grade 1 & PreK), Daniele Ascani (Parent, Spanish Grade 2)

Our student running club practices weekly on Thursdays at 7:35am at Dewitt Clinton Park (weather-permitting) or the HWIS gymnasium and enjoys an exciting race calendar of New York Road Runners-sponsored youth events throughout the academic year.

The team is open to all Pre-K - Grade 8 students. The parents of Kindergarteners (and up) are permitted to drop off their student(s) at weekly practices, and the coaches ensure runners are checked into the school by 8:20am. The parents of Pre-K students are required to attend and observe full practices before transferring their preschooler to morning drop-off.
