FIELD DAY
We’re excited to announce that our Field Days will take place on May 21st and May 22nd. Students will enjoy a fun-filled time of outdoor games, teamwork, and school spirit as we celebrate the end of the year together.

To make these events run smoothly, we need volunteers. Field Day is one of our most memorable traditions, and it wouldn’t be possible without the help of our amazing families. If you’re available to assist with stations or help with setup and cleanup, or donate we’d love to have you join us. https://forms.gle/5qXu64t9ZQ1aSkAd7 Amazon Field Day Wish List https://tinyurl.com/yjnrp325
