Greenfield Village
Dear Families,
On Friday, May 18th, the first graders will be going on a field trip to Greenfield Village. In this packet you will find: a permission slip and an envelope for payment. The bus is scheduled to leave for the village at 9:00 am and return at approximately 2:30 pm.
Greenfield Village recommends at least one adult chaperone to every ten students; however, it would better serve each student’s needs to have one adult chaperone to every four students (or less). If you are interested in becoming a chaperone, please stop in the office to have your background checked. This process takes time, so please do not wait to do this. If you have not had your background checked and cleared through the office, you will not be able to chaperone this field trip.
The ticket price for admission into Greenfield Village WITH a ride pass is $19 for students AND chaperones. Please send in your payment in the attached envelope. Tickets are more expensive than our previous field trips because we wanted the kids to get the full experience, so we signed up for the best package available, which includes admission to the Village as well as access to all of the rides.
**If you are a Greenfield Village member, please indicate that on your payment envelope. If you are not chaperoning, please send in a copy of your membership along with a note giving permission for your child to use the membership without you physically with them. If you are chaperoning, just bring yourself and your membership to show at the entrance gate.
Finally, chaperones may not ride the bus this year due to limited seating. We are also asking that if you are chaperoning to please drive your own child and consider carpooling.
Please be sure to sign the permission slip and send in payments no later than Wednesday, May 9th, 2018.
Thank you!
The First Grade Teachers
