Friday Field Trip

Reminder!

Friday is our field trip to The Michigan Science Center. Please make sure your child wears his or her Kindergarten t-shirt. Please pack a lunch with your child’s name on it. We prefer you to send lunches in a grocery bag so it can be thrown away when they are finished eating. No pop or glass bottles.

The school bus will leave by 9:20am. All chaperones need to meet by the office by 9:10am. Children should still come to school at 8:30am.

Any questions please ask!

Thanks!
