Elwood Students Celebrate Field Day

The grass fields at Harley Avenue Primary School and James H. Boyd Intermediate School in the Elwood Union Free School District were filled with blue and white pride fs students, at their respective schools, participated in field day celebrations. The district’s physical education departments coordinated the day’s festivities, which allowed students to showcase their various athletic abilities while demonstrating good sportsmanship.
Each grade level wore a blue or white T-shirt and competed in a variety of physical activities. The field day events required both an individual and team effort. Throughout the day, students participated in games such as tug of war, an egg balancing exercise, a potato sack race and relay races.

As students competed in the events, their fellow teammates, along with teachers and parents, cheered them on from the sidelines.
