Harry S Truman High School » Teacher Resources

Our Annual Family Day is fast approaching. Last year was a success. This year, we’d like to build on that success by including a wider variety of activities and events.

Some proposed ideas include, but are certainly not limited to:

Basketball, Softball, Flag Football, Track and Field Events, Face Painting, Tennis, Water Balloon Toss, Dancing, Egg-spoon Race, Potato Sack Race, Eating Contest, Limbo, and of course, FOOD!

Making this day a special event for students, staff, and the community-at-large will take innovation and inspiration. If you have ideas and/or would like to help, WE NEED YOU!!!

THS Family Day is Saturday, May 17, 2008

In addition, AP Leddy will also need logistical/operational support during this event for those who feel they could contribute to that part of this effort.

Contact AP Barakat if you would like to help.
