St. Francis Academy

The fourth annual SFA Walkathon was by far the longest: students, teachers, and several parents walked about 20 blocks before reaching Washington Park, bordering Union City and Jersey City.

As usual, the activity started with a prayer service in the school chapel. We then assembled in front of the school before walking off to the park.

Despite the temperamental weather, everyone in the Walkathon enjoyed the entire morning. Special thanks to Union City Police Department for providing the safety and security during our walk and stay in the park.
