Fun in the Sun Across the District

Celebrating is an important part of the end of a school year. Across the district, schools took advantage of the sunshine to have a little fun with their students after the completion of testing by means of various types of field days.
Interesting types of activities were seen from school to school in the system such as this scooter ride. Looks like fun for someone young at R. L. Young!

Are you brave enough for this activity?

Central Office Staff visited and some even joined in the fun.

Don't worry, Dr. Buck was not permanently stuck to the velcro wall.

Field Days could not occur without the cooperation and participation of teachers, volunteers, such as retired teacher Joanne Duncan, and parents who give their time, donations, and talents so that students can have a much deserved day of fun. Mr. Berry, a teacher at Hal Henderson, bravely manned the dunking booth and brought in lots of funds! That's dedication for sure...

Everyone pitched in to make a fun day for all!

Ellis students, teachers, and administrators met at the baseball field for a 7th/8th grade ballgame. I wonder who won?

Many schools even had a special shirt to wear for the event, such a the ones these Houston teachers are wearing.

As you will notice, the fun was not limited to just the children! Central Office staff members, teachers, staff, retired employees, parents, and administrators even joined in...

Mr. Cobb, principal at Salter, is always a good sport.

Look at the smiles on the faces of everyone.

Even with the excitement, students were on their best behavior.

These guys need to ask Dr. Buck how to work these velcro coats that will allow you to stick to the wall!

Field Day is much more fun with refreshments! Parents and community businesses, such as Pepsi, donated to help with the costs.

Talladega High and Ellis Junior High students lended a hand in making the day fun at Hal Henderson. Elementary children look up to upperclassmen and these young teens are good role models!

This was certainly a memory-making day in the Talladega City School District for everyone!
