Field Trips for this year
We currently have 5 field trips planned for 2nd grade!
They are…
Detroit Zoo October 24th
Marquis Theater January 16th
Matthaei Botanical Garden April 10th
Greenfield Village April 17th
U of M Interpretive Center (pond study) May 29th
If you have an Ichat form approved in the office please let me know if you would like to chaperon on a field trip. Ichat forms take about a month to process. So, if you don’t have one on file in the office, please stop by the office and fill one out!
We need to have chaperons for field trips. Last year, 2nd grade, had to cancel student field trips due to lack of chaperons. I am hoping this will not happen again this year. Field trips are an out of school education opportunity for all students!
