Spring Fitness testing is coming to an end with the students giving a great effort in trying to better their Fall scores on the tests.
All-District 5th Grade Track and Field Day at Prior Lake High School will be held on Friday, May 27 from approximately 9:50 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. All 5th graders from the district schools will meet at the High School for some fun and friendly competition. Morning preliminaries will take place in the baseball throw, soccer kick, 100 meter dash, 400 meter run and shuttle, 4 X 100 meter and medley relays. Afternoon will be filled with the finals of the morning events with the top kids in each school competing with each other.
Grainwood 'Game Days' are scheduled for Wednesday, June 1 for the 4th and 5th grades in the morning and the 2nd and 3rd grades in the afternoon. The morning session will run from approximately 9:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. The afternoon session will run from approximately 12:45 p.m. to 2:45 p.m. Activities will include games of pushball, line soccer, capture the chicken, bocce ball, and gunny sack races, along with a relay station. Parents are welcome to come and watch, bring your lawn chair and sunscreen. Please sign in at the office and put on a visitor badge. We are hoping for good weather as there is not a make-up date if the weather does not cooperate. Kindergarten and 1st grade will have their Game Day on Friday, June 3. Their session will be in the morning from approximately 9:15 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. Their session will include similar games to the older kids with a few changes. All sessions will conclude with a tug of war challenge between the classrooms.

Mr. Larson, Physical Education Teacher at Grainwood
