Dear Parents,
Just a heads up that we have a very busy month ahead of us. There will be more info and permission slips to come but just as a heads up, this is what is on our schedule:
Tuesday, February 14th: Valentine’s Day party (Volunteers needed!)
Thursday, February 16th: State Capitol Field Trip (We have charted buses for this one, so we will not be taking the Frontrunner)
Tuesday, February 21st:Discovery Gateway Reaction Time Assembly (5th grade only)
Thursday, February 23rd: PTC’s 3:30-5:30
Tuesday, February 28th: Weber State Storytelling Festival/Sub Zero Field trip
Wednesday, March 1st: Utah Symphony Field Trip
We will have a 1:5 chaperone to student ratio for our field trips and I will do my best to make sure everyone who wishes to chaperone gets the opportunity at sometime during the year. It is very important that we stick to the chaperone guidelines that we are given by the facilities to ensure that we are invited back in upcoming years. Chaperones will be picked once permission slips have been returned. I will get those written and sent home closer towards the end of the month. 🙂
*If you would like the school to provide a sack lunch for your child for the field trip, please know they are available for a charge of $1.75. They will consist of an uncrustable sandwich (peanut butter & jelly), bag of carrots, an apple and a juice box. We do need a one week advanced notice if this is something you are interested in.
