FIELD DAY
Our annual Field Day is almost here! PK–2nd graders will participate on Thursday, May 21st, and 3rd–5th graders will enjoy their events on Friday, May 22nd from 9 to 10:30 AM each day. While we value and appreciate all children, Field Day is reserved exclusively for Southwest students.

Students should come dressed in appropriate PE clothing, closed-toe athletic shoes, and bring a water bottle. Two water stations will be available as students rotate through 15 fun activity stations.

To add a splash of fun, students are invited to join our Color Challenge by wearing their grade level color: Pre-K : Black | Kindergarten: Blue | 1st Grade: Red | 2nd Grade: Green | 3rd Grade: Orange | 4th Grade: Purple | 5th Grade: Yellow

Huge thanks to everyone who has already donated from our wish list. Mr. Holmes will follow up with volunteers on Monday with a few details.
