Field Day!
Please ensure students come to school that day with appropriate attire such as shorts, a T-shirt, sneakers (not flip flops, crocs, or sandals unless they are athletic sandals, i.e., KEENS), and a hat. Please give them sunscreen before leaving the house. Water bottles/hats need to be labeled. Field Day this year will take place on Wednesday, June 3rd, 2026, with a rain date of June 10thth. Our students in grades K-2 will have their Field Day in the afternoon, while the 3rd-5th graders will have their Field Day in the morning. This will minimize disruptions to students’ lunch schedules and classroom schedules. If you would be interested in volunteering to help with our Field Day, please sign up using the Sign-Up Genius via the following link. Candlewood Field Day, I’m including the list of Field Day activities with descriptions to make it easier for families to decide which Field Day center to volunteer for.
