Dear Parents:
Field Day is almost here! In preparation for it, here is some information to be aware of so that students will have a fun and safe time.
This year, field day will be held during Specials, and will be all week long from May 24th-May 28th. As a grade level, students will participate in different stations and events throughout the week.
Due to Covid restrictions, we ask that there be no visitors or spectators during field day week. Thank you for understanding.
The schedule, including lunch, will run as usual.
Attire: Tennis shoes are required to participate in almost all events. Sandals, crocks, or flip-flops will not be safe during most of our events. It is also recommended to bring water bottles and a towel in case it is misting or we get caught in the rain.

Notes from Nurse Mathews, RN
The end of the school year is almost here! We did it!
I just have a few last minute things to let you know about.
1. If your child has medication at school for this year, please make arrangements to pick up the medication on/before the last day of school May 28,2021. Medication can not be kept in the clinic over the summer. Any left over medication will have to be disposed of on June 1,2021.
2. If your child will need to take medication at school next school year you can find the link to the Medication Authorization here: https://sites.google.com/hayscisd.net/studenthealth/medications?authuser=0
3. I will be sending out immunization reminders for those students who will need updated immunizations or updated ROC exemptions BEFORE returning to school in August. If your child has received any immunizations please send an updated record to my email . My email is kristal.mathews@hayscisd.net.
Last but not least….enjoy your summer, have fun and be safe! I will see you in August!
