Celebrating Milam
Dear Ben Milam Families,
Can you believe we only have 9 days of school left before summer break? I can't. Where has the time gone? We begin our end-of-year activities this week. Please make sure to check the calendar for dates and times for award ceremonies, field trips and field day.
Our PK and Kinder students will be recognized on Thursday for their accomplishments this year. Our other award programs will be next week. Parents and family members are welcome to attend the programs which will be held in the school cafeteria.
Field Day is Friday, May 25, 2018. All students will receive a field day t-shirt on Friday to wear during the event. Parents may attend Field Day but MUST bring a picture ID for signing in at the main office. ALL visitors will be required to sign-in before participating in field day. No exceptions will be made to the requirement to have a current, picture ID. The safety of all of our students is our first priority.
A Field Day flyer will be sent home on Tuesday with specific information about items your child may need for Friday. We have had several parents request the use of a jump house or a water slide. Due to the safety of our students, the district no longer permits the use of those items at any school events.
Please continue to make sure your child is at school each of these last 9 days. With your help, we will finish close to a 97% attendance rate for the year. Perfect attendance pep rallies will be on Friday after Field Day.
Thank you for your continued support of Ben Milam Elementary!
