Dear Brackett Families,

Tomorrow looks to be amazing weather for field day – slightly overcast with rain holding off until late afternoon/evening. YAY! I look forward to seeing so many of you then.

 

As a reminder, students should dress comfortably to be outside and remember to bring a water bottle and a hat. Grade levels can dress up by color to celebrate together.

Kindergarten – RED
Grade 1 – ORANGE
Grade 2 – YELLOW
Grade 3 – GREEN
Grade 4 – PURPLE
Grade 5 – BLUE/Fifth grade T-shirt

 

Best,

Dr. Vice
