Mrs. House's Kick Off to Summer
May 22, 2026
Mrs. House’s Kick Off to Summer 5K is a celebration of the life, love, and legacy of Judy House—a devoted teacher, mentor, wife, and mom whose impact stretched across classrooms, hallways, and hearts in both Lansing Public Schools and Bath. Judy taught for 25 years in Lansing and the last 3 years at Bath, where her passion for students continued to shine. She also helped coach Girls on the Run, encouraging confidence, kindness, and strength—on and off the course. While she loved to tease family members about running, Jude and her son shared many meaningful 5Ks together, supporting causes close to their hearts. This fun, non-competitive 5K will take place on the Bath Cross Country Course and is designed to bring students, families, staff, and community members together as we kick off the start of summer. ☀️ Participation is free for all Bath students, and proceeds from event shirt sales and donations will support the Judy House Memorial Scholarship, which will be awarded annually to one graduating senior from Bath and one from Lansing Public Schools, beginning with next year’s class. Come walk, jog, or run in remembrance. Come celebrate with us as we kick off summer, Mrs. House's style! 💙🏃♀️
