Fitness Teams from elementary and middle schools across the state brought serious hustle to the 2025 WVDE Fit + Active Schools Face-Off Since January, these young athletes have been training hard—building strength, teamwork, and some seriously impressive stamina.

And a school from Kanawha County brought home the gold! OVERBROOK ELEMENTARY took home 1st place in the Elementary Division! Way to represent, KCS!

This high-energy event wasn’t just about competition—it was also packed with fun, hands-on educational opportunities! In the Great Hall students learned the importance of living tobacco- and vape-free from RAZE , while Medical Assisting students from Ben Franklin Career Center checked vitals and shared health tips like real pros-in-the-making!

From flawless form to lightning-fast transitions , teams were scored on everything from intensity and rhythm to stamina and communication.

Kanawha County kids showed up strong, supported each other, and inspired us all to keep moving and live healthy, active lives!

Congratulations, Overbrook!
