Hello Parents! Field day is next Thursday and if you are interested in volunteering I would ask you to fill out this quick google form so I can assign you a station. I know some of you have already filled out the paper form but I'm trying to be as efficient as possible so if you would still do this online form I'd really appreciate it! Thank you for serving your community!
