REMINDER:
TOMORROW is Booth's FIELD DAY and COLOR RUN! We are super excited that the rain has cleared and students are ready to enjoy a fun filled morning at Field Day. Students will be outside from 9:00 - 11:30.
Don't forget to put on sunscreen and dress in your grade level colors (see flyer). Students participating in the COLOR RUN will need to bring a change of clothes and a towel to use after field day is over. This will prevent excess color from being spread inside the building.
We will be selling snacks outside as well. Snacks prices will be $1 - $3 per item. (See graphic for items and prices.)
Parents are welcome to join us tomorrow. Please bring photo ID and check in at the table in the back of the school. No school-aged siblings will be allowed on campus. Students will stay with their class during field day activities as they are competing as a team.

Field Day and Color Run is POSTPONED! We have been monitoring the weather for tomorrow's Field Day very closely. Due to the Color Run and other activities we will not be able to have field day inside therefore, we are rescheduling Field Day and the Color Run for MONDAY, MAY 11 from 9:00 - 11:30. I am sorry for this change but we cannot control the weather. We will not be passing out Hot Tickets today. All students may dress out of uniform tomorrow. Students may wear their color run t-shirt tomorrow with shorts or pants if they purchased them. Please remember that no short shorts should be worn. Shorts should reach the student's fingertips.
