Field Trip Details

     We are excited to announce our next field trip! The entire fourth grade will be traveling to Thanksgiving Point to tour the Museum of Ancient Life. Our classes will be using the Frontrunner instead of busses for this field trip. The field trip will be held Tuesday, April 30. We will be meeting at the Frontrunner station on 4000 South promptly at 8:30. There will be NO RIDES provided from the school to the Frontrunner Stations. Please make arrangements to drop your student off by 8:30, as the train leaves at 8:45. Students will need to be picked up at the Frontrunner Station on 4000 South. Our train is scheduled to arrive at 3:16. Please be there on time. Again, there will be NO RIDES from the station to the school. Every student will need a signed permission slip in order to participate.

    We will have no way to provide lunch for students on that day, so each student will need to bring a COLD lunch from home. There will be no microwaves or silverware, so plan appropriately!  Students will need a bag to carry their lunch in.  If you would like to attend the field trip with your student please indicate so on the permission slip. Remember to bring your lunch.

    We are asking for a donation of $7 per student as there is a fee for this trip.  I have room for five free adults to come with us. More parents are welcome to come, but you will have to pay for your admission to Thanksgiving Point. I will draw for the five free, more are welcome, but just know you will be paying to attend. I will hold the drawing for free parents April 23rd and notify you if you will be paying or will be free. If you have to pay, you will pay your entrance fee at the park, not at the office. Parents not chosen for chaperones, you will need to buy your Frontrunner pass. If you can get in a group of 4, you can pay $4 for a ticket. Otherwise, the cost of a ticket is extra. No siblings are allowed on the field trip.  Any adult volunteers will be required to ride the Frontrunner with the students down to Thanksgiving Point and back. Note: per school policy, please do not feed the students. There is a cafe and gift shop. We do not want the students to visit these areas during the trip. 

Thank you,

Fourth Grade Teachers
