📢 Field Day is Tomorrow! 🐾

Our Bobcats are excited for Field Day during P.E times, one of our favorite end-of-year traditions! Students will participate in a variety of fun activities, including games that may involve water and/or water balloons.

To help your child have a comfortable and enjoyable day, please send:

✅ Clothes and shoes they can wear to get wet during water activities
✅A towel
✅ A complete change of clothes, including dry shoes and socks, for after Field Day

We often find that students remember a change of clothes but forget an extra pair of shoes, which can leave them walking around in wet shoes and socks for the rest of the day.

Please note that water activities will take place only if weather permits.

If you do not want your child to participate in water activities, please contact the front office as soon as possible.
We look forward to a fun and memorable day celebrating the end of a great school year with our Bobcats!
