PAAAS students participated in our annual end of the year field day on June 20 that offered various outdoor activities including a 70’ obstacle course, dunk tank, water balloons, temporary tattoos, basketball, volleyball, soccer, as well as indoor activities including video games, board games, and a movie. Field Day allows students the opportunity to engage with their peers in fun activities that allows them to also be active. Funds from the grant were used to provide Kona ice for students and staff at this event. Field Day was organized by both the middle and high school Student Council advisors (Lisa Bergamotto-MS and Tiana Mayes-HS) who are both members of the Health and Wellness Team.
