I am so excited because our field trip is this week. We will be going to the Loveland Living Planet Aquarium on Tuesday and here is our schedule for the day. We will be in the classroom at 8:30 to pass out school lunches. MAKE SURE THAT YOUR CHILD IS ON TIME AS WE CAN NOT WAIT FOR LATE STUDENTS!!! Please make sure that your child brings a backpack to carry their lunch and a jacket. The weather for that day will be cloudy with a chance of wind and rain. Please make sure your child is dressed appropriately and in their school uniform. We will be loading the buses approximately at 8:50. Our first stop will be Galena Hills Park, 12500 So. Galena Park Blvd, in Draper. We will be arriving at this park around 10:00 to eat an early lunch. We will then board the bus around 10:40 to head to the Loveland Living Planet Aquarium for our reservation @ 11:00. We will spend a couple of hours exploring and having the time of our lives. At 12:50 we will make our way back to the buses and head back to the school. We will arrive back at Quest around 2:15. Because we ate an early lunch, we will be having popcorn as a snack when we get back to school. I do have food permission for all students, however, if you have a problem with this, please let me know.

TO ALL VOLUNTEER PARENTS: If you have not paid the office your $10.00 field trip fee by Monday, you will have to pay full price at the aquarium and drive yourself.
