Chaperone Volunteers So Far: Mr. Buck, Ms. Litwalk and Mr. Shaw
Please let me know asap! Thank you so much:)

As we prepare for the program and finalize staffing, we need to know number of chaperones attending for the trip.
During the trip, 4th graders will be separated into 4 groups, and the kids will need full supervision during all rotations. They have asked us to inform parents “they will be actively involved and must be able to walk around the farm”. The chaperones need to monitor all behaviors during the presentations and assist group leaders as necessary. It’s a fun trip and a safe, busy one:)
4 things we will be learning about:
Embryology and the chicken life cycle
Ruminants and goat milking
Vermicomposting
greenhouse visit
Walk around the pond
Due to limited spacing on bus parents will need to follow us. Please let me know if you can join us by Tuesday so I can respond and find out $$.
