Elementary Field Day Is Coming!
Ms. Elmore and the elementary staff have planned FUN things for field day on Tuesday, June 7th. We need help that day to set-up, manage activities, serve lunch, and clean up. All parents are welcome and encourage to come. Please email Ms. Elmore at elmore_k@hcrs-va.org if you can help and the times you are available.
Students will get wet during field day. Students should wear clothing that they don't mind getting wet. All students should have sunscreen applied before coming to school. Girls should wear swimsuits under their T-shirts and shorts. Tennis shoes are still required. Afterschool care students may want a change of clothes.
