Good Morning! Field Day is still on! It's a little chilly, so dress your student accordingly, and have them bring a change of clothes there are water activities. Rain During Family Reunion: If it's raining during the family reunion, we do not have enough room to accommodate all of the parents inside of the building at one time. That being said, if you planned to bring lunch for your child, you may have to send food with them this morning, or drop it off to them today instead of eating with them. I apologize in advance for the possible inconvenience. I will try to keep you posted.
