Discovery Elementary was thrilled to welcome author Dion Leonard and his rescue dog, Gobi, to our school this week! Students were beyond excited to meet the author of Finding Gobi, a heartwarming story about how Dion and Gobi found each other during a challenging marathon in the Gobi Desert.
Dion shared the inspiring true story of how he rescued Gobi, a stray dog who ran alongside him during the race, and their bond grew into a beautiful friendship. The students were captivated by Dion’s journey and loved hearing about the adventures of Gobi, who was also present for the visit, stealing the show with his lovable charm!
It was a truly special moment for the kids to meet both the author and the dog they had read about in class. Finding Gobi is a book about resilience, compassion, and the unexpected friendships that change our lives, and the students couldn’t have been more excited to meet the real-life stars of the story.
Thank you, Dion and Gobi, for sharing your incredible journey with us!

Mark your calendars for the 2025 Fun Run at Discovery Elementary on February 27th! This exciting event is just around the corner, and we can’t wait for students to hit the course, have fun with friends, and show off their running skills! Each grade will have their turn to run, and while we’re all about having a great time, remember—fun is the main goal!
Families are welcome to come cheer on their runners as spectators, making it a great opportunity to support the kids and join in the excitement. Be sure to check with your child’s teacher or room parent for the specific time their class will be running.
Not only is the Fun Run a day full of energy and fun, but it’s also one of the school’s biggest fundraisers of the year. Your participation helps support important programs and activities at Discovery Elementary.
We look forward to seeing you there—let’s make this year’s Fun Run the best one yet!
