A few more reminders:
Refreshments: Students are encouraged to bring water bottles for Olympic Day. The PTA will provide popsicles for students at the end of the day. There will be a concession stand (benefiting the 5th grade), so please send money with your child in a labeled bag if you want him/her to purchase any concession items.
Lunch: The school menu calls for sack lunches. If you plan to eat lunch with your child, please notify your teacher before Olympic Day.
Dress: Students are to wear their Olympic Day T-shirt, sport shoes, and shorts/sweatpants. If you did not buy an Olympic Day T-shirt, please ask your child's teacher what color the class represents and send your child in a t-shirt of a matching color. Also, please apply sunscreen to your child that morning.
If you have any questions feel free to call or email me. Thank you!
