Busy Barn
Tomorrow is the field trip for grades K4-4th grade to Busy Barn. Please remember that students need to wear their red polos. It is going to be cold so it is also important that they are dressed for the weather as we will be outside for the entire day. Please pack a cold lunch for your child, including a drink. We are also asking that you send a sturdy bag along with your child so that they can carry their pumpkins home. Thank you to everyone who has volunteered to chaperone this field trip! Please be aware that younger siblings are not able to attend field trips with you if you have signed up to chaperone. This should be a fun time for everyone!!
