Field Day
Our 2021 Falcon Field Day is right around the corner. April 22, our scholars will compete in exciting outdoor events, beginning with Kinder through Third grade in the morning, and Fourth through Seventh grade in the afternoon. Scholars will wear t-shirts, purchased by our campus, with a color unique to their class and representing one of the 12 Greek City States found in the graphic attached HERE. If you did not get a chance to fill out the "T-Shirt Size" survey form this past week, please contact Mr. Corcoran or Mr. Ruiz at the emails below. We are looking forward to a time of fun, fitness and Falcon Pride during our 2021 Falcon Field Day.
