May Day Festival

May 16, 2008

(Rain Date May 22, 2008)

 

Dear Parents:

 

To celebrate a great year and the end of TAKS, the seventh graders will enjoy a day of fun!

 

The festivities begin with movies in their class, then up to the football field for lunch and the carnival.  Lunch will be pizza, fruit rollup, cookie, and water at 11:30.  If for any reason you cannot eat these items, please provide your own lunch.  (See the PG permission slip below.)

 

Carnival Details: (12:00-3:00) There will be music and color hairspray.  We will also have a rock climbing wall, a slip and slide, a super slide, an obstacle course, football equalizer, inflatable basketball, plus other activities.  As always, the Hudson Bend Fire Department will help keep us cool and have some relays to add to the fun.  Snacks will be provided at 1:30; snow cones will be available throughout the day.

 

Each student will get a May Day T-shirt the day of the event; students should wear a bathing suit under their clothes, and they will change into their May Day shirt in the morning and MUST be worn at all times in order to participate. 

 

As a reminder to students and parents, students must have demonstrated good behavior during the year to attend the festivities.   Eligibility is based on no more than 1 placement in ISS or any placement in DAEP.   Students who are not eligible to participate will have assignments from their classes to complete that day.  We look forward to this fun day for our hard working students. 

 

 

 

Please send bottom portion with payment by April 25th
