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 buses for this field trip. The field trip will be Wednesday, May 2.
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 8:46. 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. Every student will need this signed permission slip in order to participate.
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 or backpack 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, too!
I have room for two more free adults to come with us. More parents are welcome to come, but once I get past six parents you will have to pay for your admission to Thanksgiving Point. We have another in-school field trip coming up from Ogden Nature Center on April 30th. To offset the cost of both field trips, we are asking for a donation of $7 per student.
Finally, just be aware that NO siblings are allowed on the field trip according to Thanksgiving Point’s rules. Any adult volunteers will be required to ride the Frontrunner with the students down to Thanksgiving Point and back.
We are very excited about this field trip! If you have not signed the permission slip, please do so today!
