Field
trips are considered a valuable part of experience and learning.As
an extension of our regular school day, students are expected to behave
as they would in the classroom. Our chaperones are asked to model appropriate
behaviors for the children.The
cost of the field trips may vary.If
any family is experiencing difficulty in providing the money for the excursion,
please talk with your child’s teacher about assistance.
Two
field trips are currently planned, and others may be added as appropriate
to the curriculum.
