With help from 25 stackers at Hope Street Elementary, a new
world record was set on November 14th as part of STACK UP! 2013. According
to the World Sport Stacking Association (WSSA), this year’s event exceeded all
expectations with 555,932 stackers taking part on Guinness World Records Day,
smashing the 2012 mark of 483,658. The stackers spanned the globe, hailing from
360 countries and representing 2,631 schools and organizations. This is the
eighth year the WSSA has teamed up with teachers, physical educators and youth
leaders from around the world to set a Guinness World Record for “Most People Sport
Stacking at Multiple Locations in One Day.” All stackers were required to be
engaged in sport stacking and fitness activities for at least 30 minutes on
November 14th. Many schools also “stacked up for a good cause” by
combining their event with a local charity. Registration for STACK UP! 2014
will open on September 10th.
We are the largest district in Shawnee County & believe that our students will change the world.
