Seventh graders will be taking a field trip to the Henry Ford Museum in Dearborn on Thursday, February 1st. We will need parent chaperones to assist us for the day. Please check the box on the permission slip if you are interested in joining us. Permission slips went home with students today. We have asked that permission slips and money be turned in by Wednesday, January 17th. 

*There is an error listed for the cost of the trip!  The cost for the field trip is $15 (instead of $10, as the amount needed to pay for the school buses was not accounted for.) The cost includes admission to the museum, admission to the Science of Pixar exhibition, and the cost for the buses. There is no cost to parent chaperones.

*Students will need to pack a lunch including a drink for this field trip. No glass bottles please! Students will not be able to purchase concessions for their lunch, snacks, or drink.

Looking forward to another fun field trip with our class!!
