**Sportsmanship is a big part of field day.  Field day is meant for fun, but is an opportunity for students to receive recognition for their athletic abilities.  Learning how to cope with losing and how to win with dignity is an extremely difficult concept for some children to learn. Let’s all work together in teaching this valuable lesson.  Most importantly let’s make sure the kids have an enjoyable day with their classmates.  Please make sure as parents we are encouraging sportsmanship and humility when participating in field day events.  Thank you for your support.
