- We're counting down the days until the big Jekyll field trip. I want to assure you that your student will be well supervised and cared for. We'll treat them as if they are our own. A few reminders before the trip:
- No electronics at all. Cameras are OK, but we are not responsible if they're lost or broken.
- Please observe non-uniform guidelines when packing. Comfortable clothes are a must. Baseball caps are OK.
- Send bug spray and sunscreen.
- No flip flops
- One pair of shoes will be completely soaked after our seining and netting class. Please send either an extra old pair of tennis shoes, keens or teva like sandles, or water shoes for this activity.
- Send a trash bag for dirty clothes.
- Don't forget canteen $ for snacks. Students are responsible for keeping up with this.
- Wear your blue ribbon t-shirt to school on Wednesday with shorts and tennis shoes.
- You may want to escort your child in on Wednesday morning and place his/her luggage in the classroom. We won't leave until 9:30, so our morning will begin at 8:25 as usual.
- Pick up will be around 2:00 on Friday at Eckberg. We'll send a remind 101 message to give you an exact time.
- Any medication that needs to be administered should be sent in a ziploc bag with the permission form prior to Wednesday.
