Please make sure students wear their Field Day

PARENTS that are NOT FINGERPRINTED need to remain
sitting on the bleachers.

We start field day at 8:30 sharp. It is vital
that scholars be on time that day in order to fully participate.

Please have students bring their own water bottle
– there will be refill stations on the field!

Consider sending an extra-large healthy snack for
the afternoon. Students will receive
provided snacks during field day morning activities, but are often tired and
hungry by the afternoon.
