My Project

We are so excited about field day! It's going to be a great day of being outside at a park, playing lots of games, and participating in fun activities!

One thing that would help us feel more like a school family on field day is having coordinating tie-dye t-shirts!

This is why I am requesting t-shirts, dye, and other tie-dye supplies. These will be a school-wide project that every student will get to participate in. Every class will get to make a shirt and wear it during our festivities!

We have been working on creating a family and community in our school- lots of changes are happening all around us and we want to support each other. A simple coordination of clothing will go a long way in making this happen!

Thanks for checking out this project!
