Field Day – June 28, 2023!

Field Day Volunteers Needed – Hello families! Field Day is coming up on Wednesday, June 28th, and we need volunteers to help run stations and facilitate activities. In order to be able to do that, you need to be cleared as a volunteer AHEAD OF TIME. The day before will not get you approved, and then we cannot use your help. Please start the process below to be cleared in time to help out. Elementary will be station based with classes rotating through together, instead of a free for all, which is different than years past.

The sign up link is here: https://www.signupgenius.com/go/60B0E4FA5AE2CA0FA7-volunteers1

Thanks, and do not hesitate to email Ms. Sullivan for questions: rasullivan@seattleschools.org.
