Here are a few reminders to help your student have a successful, enjoyable day:

1- Students wear their uniforms . 
2- Arrive on time.  Buses will depart at 8:45am.
3- Please have a good filling breakfast!
4- Leave student backpacks and water bottles at home.
5- Pick up your child at Quest at 12noon (we are scheduled to arrive back to the school at 12noon) For those picking up their students at Quest: Do not park along the sidewalk by the front of the elementary. Please leave room for two buses to pull up and safely unload the students when we arrive.

Parent Chaperones: If you are driving, we expect to arrive to the museum at 9:15am and depart the museum at 11:30am. If you choose, you may take your child home with you from the museum (you may also choose to remain at the museum with your child and continue exploring/playing). Please see Ms. Lisa before you leave to sign the checkout form.
