K-2 TRACK AND FIELD DAY:
Track and Field Day is Tuesday (tomorrow). We will be outside most of the day so make sure they have their water bottle- we do not have extra bottles of water. Also-Please sunscreen your kids, dress lightly but appropriately with tennis shoes and t-shirts to protect those shoulders from the sun! AND - if they want to wear a baseball hat they can do so to help shade their faces from the sun.... (just make sure it stays on- nobody like to lose a race because their hat fell off! lol)
We are looking forward to a GREAT DAY of fun and excitement!!
