Safety First in Gym Class!

As we run and play in P.E., proper footwear is key to preventing injuries. Please send your child in athletic sneakers on gym days. Slides and Crocs easily slide off during activity, so we ask that those stay at home for P.E. days. Thanks for helping us keep gym class safe and fun!
