Sunrise Valley Field Day is scheduled this year on Tuesday June 7, 2022. The students are very excited to take part in this wonderful end of the year celebration. As a courtesy we would like to share a few reminders for your child’s success and safety on this day:
- Students are encouraged to carry their own water bottle during SVES Field Day. Water bottles should have each student’s name either taped or written on it for identification. Water stations will be placed in various spots around the outside of the school so that students can refill them throughout the morning and afternoon sessions. Students have been asked to wear comfortable clothing in preparation for the weather. This includes wearing a hat, visor or even sun block for a hot, sunny day.
- There are two sessions for students. Students in grades (k-3) will have their field day from 10:00AM-11:30AM. Students in grades (4-6) will have their field day from 1:00PM-3:00PM.
- There’s no need for students to bring a bag lunch unless they would normally. The lunch schedule for eating inside has been adjusted to accommodate both field day sessions for students.
If there is inclement weather field day will have to be canceled. Due to all the school events at the end of the year we were unable to schedule a make up day. The decision will be made by 9:00AM Tuesday morning.
Once again thank you for all that you do in support of your child here at Sunrise Valley Elementary School. If you have any questions please contact Mr. Platts at raplatts@fcps.edu or Mrs. Allen at mvallen@fcps.edu .
It’s almost June, so you know what’s right around the corner… MORE TIME TO READ! Here are a few resources to help you kick off the summer reading at your house.
