Field Trips!

We have 4 field trips left this year. You won't want to miss any of them, so mark your calendars now.

The first is next Friday, April 12th, 2013. We will be visiting the Nikkei Legacy Center and the Holocaust Memorial at Washington Park. Rumor has it we have a bus for this trip, so I'll need chaperones but not drivers. (Subject to change at any time :) )

The second trip is a joint field trip with 7th and 8th grade on May 10th. We will be going to Oaks Park to learn about various sports that involve skates. We will have guest speakers to demonstrate roller derby, speed skating, art skating,  jam skating, and dance. 

But wait, there's more!

On May 23rd we have a mystery field trip. The destination is a secret which students will be working to figure out before we get there. I will need drivers for this trip, preferably ones with larger cars or trucks. We'll be gone for several hours, but will arrive home in time for carline.

Then, on May 28th we head out for our annual camping trip. We will leave school on Tuesday morning and return on Thursday evening. We will spend 3 action packed days in Fort Stevens touring the batteries, learning the history of the area, working with rangers and military experts, as well as learning to build fires, put up tents, tell ghost stories, swim in the lake, play on the beach, and cook our own meals. This is obviously a more involved trip and I'll need at least 2 dads and 2 moms that are willing to spend a few days with us. A more detailed information sheet will be coming home soon, please keep an eye out for it.

All of these trips will require chaperones! Please let me know which trip(s) you'd like to attend.
