Just a few reminders for tomorrow:
1-First of all, each student will be coming home with their tie dye t-shirts tonight.  The students need to wear them with jeans tomorrow (Dress Down).  
2-Every child needs to be at the Roy Front Runner station no later than 8:15 am.
3-Each child needs to bring a backpack with their lunch and a water bottle.  A jacket might be a good thing to wear as well.  They will be carrying their own things for the entire day.
**Please make sure all students go to the bathroom before they get to the Front Runner Station.  The train is not equipped to handle over 100 students going to the bathroom.

DON’T FORGET THAT YOU WILL PICK YOUR CHILD UP FROM THE FRONT RUNNER AT 3:45 PM!!

We are so excited!!!!


We had to change our 3rd Grade Party to next Tuesday, May 26th.  POQA will be feeding the students pizza for lunch, so your children do not need to send lunch that day.  We will also be having some activities that day and watch a movie together as a grade.  Students need to bring their tie dye shirts with them on this day.  They will get to wear them over uniforms during the 3rd grade games.  Thanks!

Field Trip to the Aquarium!

Our long awaited field trip is almost here! We are going to the Living Planet Aquarium in Draper on May 22nd.

The plans for the trip are as follows:

*All students will need to meet at the Roy FrontRunner Station no later than 8:15.  We will then board the train and ride to Draper.  A bus will meet us there and shuttle us to the Aquarium.
*At the Aquarium we are scheduled for a half-day learning adventure and then we will have a short time to explore and eat lunch. (There will not be school lunch available for our students this day.)
*We will then shuttle and board the FrontRunner and return to the Roy Station at 3:45

The cost of the aquarium is usually around $15 for children and $18 for adults so we are ecstatic to say that the cost of this fieldtrip is $2.00 donation per student (Please note: No child will be left behind due to not paying).  If you, as a parent, would like to go with us, you are more than welcome to.  The cost of the trip for parents is $7.00 which will cover the cost of your admission into the Aquarium and your transportation.  With the nature of this field trip, we are only allowing parents to attend with us and all parents will be responsible for a small group of children.  Please make other arrangements for ALL other siblings.   

If you would like to go with us , please sign the note at the bottom of the page and return it WITH your payment by Friday, May 8th.  Those who do not pre-sign up will need to pay full admission price at the Aquarium that day.

I will be sending the permission slip home today. It is also linked here Field Trip Permission Slip.

Thanks,
Ms. Young

Our Field Trip was Awesome!

Our field trips was a huge success! The play at the children’s theater was very entertaining and educational–everyone loved it! We even did a question and answer session with the actors after. 

At the capitol building we ate lunch and then talk with the Attorney General. He talked to us about internet safety. In his office is a charcoal and pencil portrait of Abraham Lincoln that a mother from one of our Quest 3rd graders did! 

Thank you all so much for your support, especially those parents who came and helped us at the field trip.  Pictures will follow shortly!

You made it!! No more homework for the rest of the school year! I would encourage everyone to continue reading 20 minutes a day, but besides that we are done with homework. There was a ton of hard work put into homework this year. I couldn’t be more proud!

Our field trip to the Megaplex in Salt Lake is tomorrow. Please remember students should be at the Roy Front Runner Station at 8:15. Please pick them up at the same station at 2:47.

If you are coming to the theater with us please remember that the theater will only be accepting cash. Movie tickets are 5.50. Concessions are normal prices.

Students will need to be in uniform with their backpacks, a lunch, a water bottle, shoes for walking, and a jacket. I would also recommend something to entertain them while on the train. If electronics are brought, it is at their own risk.

Also: The third grade team has planned a “Super Fun Filled Third Grade Celebration!” We have a day long celebration planned. The details and information are included in the permission slip.Quest Academy Parental Permission Slip for Third Grade celebration.

Megaplex Field Trip

We have planned one last minute field trip to see Rio 2 at the Megaplex Theatre at the Gateway in Salt Lake City on Tuesday, May 20th.  We will be taking the Front Runner/TRAX again to save on busing costs.  Students need to be dropped off at the Roy Front Runner Station at 8:15 a.m. and will need to be picked up at 2:47 p.m.

Students will need to bring their own bag lunch and a water bottle in their backpacks. Students will also need to be dressed in uniform for the field trip (and wear name badge).  
Students will be provided a Sprite and popcorn for their movie snack.  Students do not need any money for the day.  

Parents are more than welcome to attend on the field trip.  Parents will need to pay for their own Front Runner tickets and movie tickets/concessions.  The Megaplex is willing to give all parents the same price they are giving us: $5.50 admission.  You MUST bring cash to pay for admission and concessions because the theatre will not be officially open.  A permission slip is coming home today and here is a link as well-Permission Slip.  Please sign and return tomorrow.  Thanks!
