Hello Exploris Families, 

This spring we are having Earth Day Field Day for grades K-5! It will be on April 22, 2022. We will have lots of activities for all ages including Jump Rope and Freeze Dance. On field day please make sure your child has good shoes for playing and has a water bottle. Fifth grade will be running the stations for K-2 but we would love your help running stations for 3-5.

The K-2 Field day will be occurring from 9:30-11:00 and the 3-5 field day will be occurring from 12:30-2:00. If you would like to sign up to help with the 3-5 Field Day, the activities are listed on this signup genius here. If you are available to volunteer we would really appreciate your help!

Our publicity team made this video to promote this event!

If you have questions about Earth Day Field Day, please contact Ms. Lisa lferrando@exploris.org
