  • “I have no idea what you were teaching my daughter at FOS, but you created a beast. We have found it difficult to motivate her in most sports, but you have helped her find her passion. When she would come home each afternoon, she would glow with excitement about her achievements that day.”

    – FOS Parent

  • "I saw my son’s confidence grow exponentially. I am so impressed with the program and the coaches. And I’m so grateful."

    – FOS Parent

  • "My daughter will say things like: 'You don’t have to win the race, you just need to be in the race!'"

    – FOS Parent

  • “One little girl who had started the season walking her laps began to run most of them and at one practice looked up at me and said, ‘I'm doing it. I'm running most of the time!’ She was beaming!”

    – FOS Coach

  • “My daughter genuinely loves running – it centers her. Recently diagnosed with autism, she has tried a variety of team sports that have not worked out. We greatly appreciate the support, encouragement and guidance you all have given her. It means everything to us for her to have a fun, supportive sport that she loves.”

    – Parent

  • “My favorite part about coaching FOS was the excitement students had running the CHAD Hero. They were just as excited to cheer others on as they were to run the race themself. I watched a group of my runners encourage other runners they did not know by shouting positive messages and giving high fives. They did this on their own without any prompting.”

    – Coach
