Virtual Field Day and Spirit Week

Today we start Week 10 of Remote Learning, the final week of the school year!  You’ve almost made it!  To celebrate, your P.E. teachers have organized a virtual Field Day event, and Student Council is organizing a virtual Spirit Week.  We hope all students will participate, and get your families, pets, and socially-distanced friends & neighbors involved too! Take lots of photos to remember this time years down the road!

 

SPIRIT WEEK:

  • Wednesday 6/10 - Sports Day: Us sports fans really miss cheering on our favorite teams or playing our favorite games. Wear your sports gear to show support for your favorite teams or players and too celebrate Field Day as well!  (Field Day information below!)
  • Thursday 6/11 - Superhero Day: Dress up like your hero - this could be anyone from a Marvel character to a family member to an essential worker. 
  • Friday 6/12 -  Pajama Day: Now you have an excuse to wear your jammies all day! Wear your favorite pajamas or lounge wear that you have been rocking during this time of remote learning. 
  • Monday 6/15 - Teacher Day: Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. Dress up like your favorite teacher (from South or from TV/movies/books) to show your support! You can also send in a picture with a message to your teachers if you want to say thanks for a fun, if crazy, school year!
  • Tuesday 6/16 - Bulldog Day: Wear red and white or your South gear to show your school spirit and celebrate the last day of remote learning.

CAPTURE & SHARE THE MEMORIES!

Take lots of photos! Years from now, they will be fun memories of this crazy time in our lives.  They’re also fun to share now!

  • We will put together a Spirit Week slideshow, so send photos to Student Council advisor, Ms. Palermo: micaela.palermo@braintreeschools.org. This is completely voluntary, and even if you don’t want to be in the slideshow (it will be publicly posted on the school’s social media accounts), we hope you’ll still enjoy participating in each day’s theme at home!
  • Post photos to your own social media accounts using the hashtags #SouthFieldDay & #SouthSpiritWeek. Use #BulldogPride to show your school spirit!
