Last year we had the opportunity to attend field trips to the Apple Store at the Gateway in SLC.

This year we are also fortunate enough to have that opportunity! In fact, the field trip facilitator told me that of the 13 field trips they are doing this Spring, Quest Academy has 8 of those time slots!  Wahoo!

The Apple Store integrates right in our Charter and Technology Standards!  We are a dual platform school, and are very lucky to have Mac Operating Systems at our school!  We have a Mac Lab and several sets of Mac Laptops available for student use!

Mrs. Newton’s class hopped on the front runner and road down to SLC, then they got on the local Trax and it took them right to the door of the new City Creek which is now where the new and larger Apple Store is located!

Her class was greeted with a HUGE welcome from the staff at the store and all of the people in the store!  They all received a T-Shirt, Certificate and a Flashdrive …. but the best part was the fun time they had creating an IMovie Mother’s Day project!

It was a huge success and I am very excited to see what the other classes from our school will learn on their Field Trip to the Apple Store!

A big thanks to Apple and to all of the wonderful parents who attended the field trip!

Here are some snapshots for your enjoyment!
