Parents, if you are planning on attending the field trip, Antelope requires a $1 admission fee that you will need to pay at the door. Also, there will be plenty of room on the bus for parents and chaperones. If you choose to drive and meet us there, parking will be free as long as you leave when the bus leaves. If you plan to stay longer, you will be required to pay a $9 vehicle entrance fee. We are excited for this fun adventure and look forward to having many wonderful parents and grandparents there with us!

Tomorrow we have 20 days left of school, which means we are celebrating the letter “G“. We are going to play board games at the end of the day tomorrow. If your child would like to bring a game from home (no electronic games, ie DS, Nooks, IPADS, etc.) they may. If they don’t bring one, there will be plenty of games for them to play here!
