On this day, Seniors may come to school dressed in a costume similar to that worn on your first day of school. You do not need to dress in costume to participate in Kid Day activities although we do encourage it!

Trophies will be awarded to Best Boy Costume, Best Girl Costume, Best Student Duo, Best Girl Duo, Best Boy Duo, and Best Trio and Best Group. After the costume contest, the class will meet on the football field to walk as a group to Morgan Park. You may not drive.

Lunch will be provided. You may also bring your own lunch. There will be absolutely NO FOOD DROP OFFS at the park.

At the park, the activities will consist of an Easter Egg Hunt (bring a basket or bag) and competitive games.

Around 2:30 pm the class will walk as a group back to school. You may not leave early. If you participate you must participate for the entire activity. NO EXCEPTIONS. In case of rain, Kid Day activities will conclude with contest judging in the competition gym around 12:30 pm and seniors will return to their normal schedule.
