The Stratford Elementary fun day will be held Friday, May 15th. This is like a "Field day for students, where they participate in a rotation of outdoor games with their class. Parents are welcome to attend as a "spectator" during events.

 

To help organize the day, students are asked to wear a t-shirts of a specific color. Purchasing a shirt is not required, but an option. You can wear a shirt from home that is your specific grade level color.

 

Our fifth graders participated in a t-shirt drawing contest and the winning design will go on the front of the shirt. The winner is shown below. Orders forms were sent home today in student's backpacks and will be due back the Wednesday, April 15th. This is a quick turnaround so that we have them back by the beginning of May.
