5k to support Options Program

Saint John Paul the Great Catholic High School in Dumfries
will host the JP5k Run for Options Nov. 21 at 8 a.m.

Organized by the JP Family Association, the run/walk features
a timed, certified course that begins and ends at the school,
winding through the Potomac Shores neighborhood. Proceeds
from the race will support the school’s Options Program for
students with intellectual disabilities.

“The JP5k is one of our favorite community events and one of
the most effective ways for us to raise awareness about our
Options Program,” said Sister Mary Jordan Hoover, John Paul
principal. “We are proud to offer these special young men and
women a full Catholic high school experience, including
customized instruction appropriate for the individual.”
