Victory Field – both the football field and the track area – was filled with the sounds of joy and laughter on Thursday as hundreds of students from Lowell Elementary School enjoyed a Field Day. The entire student body made its way to the athletic facility that sits across the street from the school, said Principal Elizabeth Kaplan. Physical education teacher Eileen Donahue said the school has run field days in the past, but this year they brought it to Victory Field, usually the home to Watertown High School athletics. “(Recreation Director) Peter Centola was nice to let us use this,” Donahue said. “He wants the schools to use this facility and we want to take advantage of that.”
Members of the Lowell School’s Math League Team tested their skills and came out top in the nationwide competition. The Watertown elementary school has fourth- and fifth-graders who take part in the Continental Math League. Both grade levels enjoyed success this year, said Lowell teacher and Math League advisor Debra Garabedian, but the fifth graders rose to rarified air. “For the fifth grade, we are the top nationally, and the fourth grade won regionally, in New England,” Garabedian said. “Both grades levels won something this year, so that is a milestone we should be proud of.”
