Stratford's Fun Day will be held on Friday, May 15th. Kdg-2nd grade will participate 8:45-11:15 and 3rd-4th will participate 12:00-2:30. 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. Students will be eating inside for lunch and this is for students only. A schedule/map will be shared via email from Mr. Theis a few days before. There will be copies outside on a small table by the front doors.
To help organize the day, students are asked to wear t-shirts of a specific color for their grade.
Purchasing a t-shirt deadline has passed and was optional. T-shirts that were ordered will be given to students that morning. If you didn't get one ordered, you can wear a t-shirt from home that is your specific grade level color. If you have a question about grade level color; email your teacher or call the office.
FUN DAY - Sack Lunch Orders
On Friday, May 15th, students can either bring a cold lunch from home or have a sack lunch from school. If you would like your child to get a sack lunch at school, you must complete the link below - one for EACH child. If they get a sack lunch from school; it will be charged to their account. See link for what the lunch is. Link closes on Wednesday, May 13th @ 9:00pm. We will run counts for cafeteria and student lunch lists for teachers on Thursday morning.
Thank you

As testing season is almost wrapped up, students at Stratford Elementary had the opportunity to participate in a “Stress Less Fest” focused on relaxing, recharging, and having fun.
A variety of activities were offered throughout the building, allowing students to choose how they wanted to spend their time and move freely between locations during the half day. The event gave students a chance to celebrate the completion of testing season. #WeAreBPS
