The third annual Faculty Field Day, held on September 3, 2024, focused on teacher wellness. The day kicked off with keynote speaker, Dr. Katie Peters stressing the importance of kindness and empathy. Teachers then broke into sessions like yoga, yard games, walking, painting, cooking and more. The day closed with a surprise performance by Appetite for Instruction, a pop-up band with lead singer Marlaina Melker, James Sickinger on guitar, John Kubowicz on the keyboard, Jeremy Gorin on saxophone and Salvatore Coffaro on drums.
