Field Day COVID Style took place Friday, April 23. Though a little different than in years past, Field Day was still a big success. Students arrived to school dressed in their class colors ready for competition. Conducted through the Mass Media studio by Student Council, the day was filled with games where each grade level competed against one another, safely from a classroom, vying for the coveted megaphone. The competition included minute to win games and the traditional balloon toss. This year the sophomore class reigned as winners. To view photos click on the title of this post.
