My Project

Our field day is a time to celebrate the end of the school year and the completion of all our spring assessments. We have 9 teamwork building stations but need your help to purchase new supplies to create exciting new activities. We want this to be a day of friendship, team building, and healthy competition.

Field Day is a day for kids to just have fun being kids.

From inner tube races to hula hoop obstacle courses, kid sized hamster wheels to water logged sponge tosses, students will get to laugh and play the day away. After all of the hard work and fun, students will enjoy cold water and an ice pop.
