The last day of school at Yinghua is called Field Day. It is a full day of school with fun-filled outdoor activities for students. Outdoor activities typically run from 9 a.m. – 2 p.m. although homeroom teachers may decide not to spend the full day outside. Lower School grades typically hold their events just outside the school on the Northeast Athletic Fields. Middle School students may walk to Beltrami Park, a couple blocks from school.
Classes are assigned Olympic countries for the day. Parents are encouraged to attend as spectators and as volunteers!
The school will set up a tent for Health Office staff in the park so that they can be close-at-hand for any health needs.
By about 2 p.m., students return to classrooms for final room cleaning and teacher farewells.
This is a regular school day. Families should make sure to adjust their Silent Dismissal settings if their children will go home with them in lieu of bus or Aftercare.
