Biggest Event of the Year
Field Day
May 29 · Hoboken HS Field
- This is the one kids remember. Inflatables, a full catered lunch, T-shirts, and a day nobody forgets. The PTO is putting in $6,000+ to make it happen.
- About 90 volunteers make this happen — setup, station leading, class assistance, and lunch. Every role matters.
- New sign-up process this year. Fill out the interest form first. We'll run a lottery and build a waitlist. No scrambling for spots.
