Field Day Information:
All learners will be doing different activities outside from about 8:30-12:30. Please apply sunscreen at home.
During field day, learners will be on different surfaces (grass and cement), so sneakers are a must.
During several of the activities, your child will become VERY wet, so please have them bring a complete change of clothing.
During field day, all learners must wear shorts, and a “top.” “Tops” can be a tankini top, tank top, swim shirt, and/or t-shirt. (No bikini tops)
There will be a school wide snack break during the morning provided by PTO.
After morning drop off, both loops will be closed.
Since we have we have several fun stations located in the Cafe Parking Lot. This area will not be accessible for parking on May 18th until after 12:30. So, please plan to walk or bike to school that morning.
Repeat Information:
