To Field day Or not to Field Day


In the past field day was held at Kiaser Park located on Neptune and west 25 st in Coney Iland, but this year the event was moved to long Island. Many students were up for the change, but many rejected leaving the place of the first field day in the school short history. It seems that while everyone complained about the condition of the old building it seemed to have a warm at home type of feeling, well maybe to me because it was around da corner from my house. The school was l0cated on west 19 street between Mermaid and Neptune, so the walk to the park was short and sweet. Friends walked with their companions as the smell of the sand and salt breezed under every ones nose. The park wasn't the cleanest or the biggest in Brooklyn, but many students were familiar with the area, knew their way home and felt safe as well as comfortable.


The school was alot smaller at the times of field day in Coney Island, so that means a smaller amount of students as well as staff. Now the High School of Sports Management has somewhat expanded and has moved to a new location on Benson Ave. This brings about more opportunity of accidents and harder to watch over all students at all times. A whole bunch of students did not want to take part in the entire event because of the changes. the students that did attend were freshman, sophomores and some juniors because the seniors are the minority in the building they were the least in numbers.
