If you are able to volunteer, please contact your child's classroom teacher ASAP. Parents will be able to stay with their own child throughout
the day while helping with activities and supervision.
Students must wear shoes (no sandals / flip-flops / Crocs / etc.).
Students should wear comfortable clothing (anticipate getting dusty, sweaty
&/or wet).
Students should wear sunscreen/hats for protection. It
will be hot so we encourage students to bring their own water bottle;
however, PLEASE make sure it's labeled with their name and teacher. We had
many lost bottles last year. Water will also be provided for them if they
don't want to carry their own bottle.
Parents who have volunteered to help need to arrive by 9:15am. Here's to a fun field day!
The School Planning and Management Team met in April 2012, discussing student-based budgeting, proposed class size for the 12-13 school year, school improvement plan, and the Accelerated Reader program. See the full notes here.
