Today is Fun Day at Oakfield-Alabama, but unfortunately for two students, it was a little more painful than fun.
One student suffered a reported facial cut and another a broken collar bone, resulting in ambulance calls to the school.
Principle Lynn Muscarella said the accidents were unfortunate, but unusual. This is the sixth year of the event, which comes right before finals.
"We've had minor cuts and scrapes before, but nothing like this," said Muscarella.
The day starts with an awards program, is followed by lunch and then fun and games in the field.
Muscarella praised the quick response and professionalism of the ambulance personnel who responded to the calls for the minor injuries.
She also praised the student council which organized the event and said the students have done a great job each year of putting it together.
"They do a tremendous job of putting together a structured program," she said. "This year we had lots of students participate, which I was happy about."
