Ice skating for grades 2-5 on Thursday/Friday through February 26th
Ice skating for grades 2-5 will start Jan 21st and run through February 26th every Thursday OR Friday, depending on your Physical Education day for those days. It will be during the normal PE time for your class.
Please see below for the days your child's class will be skating (weather permitting). Students are welcome to bring skates and helmets but no hockey sticks. If they want to bring their hockey gloves, that is fine. I do have some skates students can borrow. They are also welcome to just play in their boots.
Due to COVID restrictions, we can NOT have parents help tie skates this year. It's unfortunate, but we are thankful we can still skate!.
"A" day skating dates (Mrs. Ohren, Mrs. Olson, Mr. Anderson, Mrs. Mezzenga, Mrs. Reed, and Mr. Jensen): Feb 18th, and Feb 26th.
"B" day skating dates (Mrs. Thompson, Mrs. Larson, Mrs. Mortenson, Mrs. Pfau, Mrs. Brahos, and Mrs. Twohig): Feb 19th, and Feb 25th.
If you have any questions please contact Amanda Kaldor at kaldora@fargo.k12.nd.us
