BTA showed up and showed out with their 2026 field day/ Caribbean Day celebration. BTA didn’t just celebrate Caribbean day. They turned streets into a moving festival of flags, rhythm, and pride as the students, families, and staff brought the energy of the island straight Mount Vernon. Soca beat echoed, flags waved high, and every step felt like a parade and a party rolled into one. For a moment traffic didn’t stand a chance, joy had the right way, and BTA made sure the neighborhood knew it.
