☀️🎉 What an AMAZING Field Day at Dwight Elementary! 🎉☀️

A huge THANK YOU goes out to our PE Teacher, Coach Alex Snow, for all of the hard work, planning, and organization that went into making Field Day such a success! From recruiting volunteers to making sure every activity ran seamlessly, Coach Snow helped create a fun and memorable day for our students. ❤️🖤

We also want to thank all of our incredible volunteers who gave their time and energy to help throughout the day. We truly could not have done it without you!

The weather was definitely a huge factor in our planning, but thankfully it held off and turned out to be the PERFECT day for outdoor fun! 🌤️

Our students had an absolute blast enjoying everything from fishing games 🎣 to the water slide 💦, bounce houses, obstacle course inflatables, snow cones 🍧, and so much more!

A special thank you also goes to our amazing cafeteria staff for working so hard to prepare lunch for everyone. 🌭👏

Seeing the smiles, laughter, and excitement from our students made the entire day so special. Thank you to everyone who helped make Field Day 2026 one to remember!

These little Cyclones are officially

Our students have been working hard during PE completing their FitnessGram testing and challenging themselves to get stronger every day. They’ve accepted Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders’ challenge, and now we’re hoping to bring home the win and earn the chance to meet John Calipari!

We are so proud of the effort, determination, and excitement our students have shown throughout this challenge. Go Cyclones!
