FRANKLIN FIELD DAY IS WEDNESDAY JUNE 15! 

We need parent volunteers for field day! Please note that Field Day 2016 is going to be a different format than prior years.  This year, there will be an Olympics theme and the children will be participating in games similar to those that are in the Olympics.  Just like the Olympics, each class will be assigned a country to compete for and will wear those country’s colors.  First Grade and Second Grade will do the same 10 stations, as always, and similarly, Third, Fourth and Fifth Grade will rotate through the same 10 stations.  However, parent volunteers (2 at each station) will remain at the same station throughout the afternoon. They will not rotate and thus, will only need to learn how to do one game. At the conclusion of field day activities, ice pops will be distributed and then the teachers will face the 5th graders in the annual Teacher v. Students volleyball game.  All younger grades will remain outside to watch and cheer on the game.

The schedule for Field Day is below:

Parent Volunteers Sign In (on soccer field) 10:45 – 11:00
