Dear Families,
We\u2019re excited to announce that our school community will be participating in the
OPEN National Field Day event on Friday, May 8 th !
Field Day is an important tradition at our school. It is a significant day for our students and
our staff, and we feel that in these incredibly challenging times this national event is a
unique way that we can stay connected as a community and support one another in a fun
and meaningful way.
OPEN (Online Physical Education Network) is a national public service organization that
provides curriculum and training support to more than 90,000 teachers in all 50 states. We
will be using their resources and social media network to help us organize our school\u2019s
participation in #NationalFieldDay.
All #NationalFieldDay events are designed to be done indoors or outdoors using common
household items. You won\u2019t be asked to purchase any specialized equipment or supplies.
Here\u2019s how it will work:
\uf0a7 Our school is now registered as a participant in this event. Families can choose to
register as well, but it\u2019s not a requirement.
\uf0a7 The event website is www.openphysed.org\/nationalfieldday.
\uf0a7 As a part of registration, we will receive Field Day Friday email updates each week with
new resources that we will share with you.
\uf0a7 You can also find updates via social media using #NationalFieldDay.
\uf0a7 By April 17 your family will receive a set of event cards that you can use to begin
practicing. You will also receive a participant practice sheet for tracking progress.
\uf0a7 Your family will be asked to choose a minimum of 4 events to complete on Field Day.
However, you may complete as many events as you\u2019d like to.
\uf0a7 From May 3 thru 7, we will follow #NationalFieldDay and watch the Field Day Torch
travel across the country in preparation for the main event.
\uf0a7 On May 8, our entire school will participate in events, complete an official score card,
share photos and videos through our school\u2019s approved platforms, and participate
nationally on social media using #NationalFieldDay.
\uf0a7 After the event, your student will submit their scorecard via Google Drive (or other
school approved method) to their physical education teacher.
\uf0a7 Every student that completes at least 4 events will receive an OPEN National Field Day
certificate.
We will continue to send you weekly updates on this fun and festive event. We appreciate
your cooperation and are hopeful that your entire family will use it as a fun and meaningful
way to be physically active together and with our entire school community.
Stay well,
Ms. Southers<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
