It was fun to get to spend Saturday night with many of you. I don’t feel like I got an opportunity to chat with everyone at the auction, but it was nice to see you all outside of a school setting.
Our field trip is this Thursday (April 25)! I am looking forward to spending the day at the zoo with your little ones. We will leave the school at 9:15 and arrive at the zoo at 9:30. If you are meeting us at the zoo, please be there at 9:30. Meet us at the Tropical Discovery Field trip Entrance (gate 9). This is not the main entrance. I will have your wristbands for you when we get there if you paid for one. If you are using your Zoo membership, please go in through the front gate and meet us at the Tropical Discovery zoo entrance (gate 9) from the inside. We will stay at the zoo until 12:30 and will be eating lunch at the zoo. We will make it back to school in time for our P.E. special at 1:15. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact me.

ZOO FIELD TRIP: First grade is going to the Zoo on April 25. As a part of our Bird’s unit in our Expeditionary Learning curriculum, we’re going to the zoo so we can see different birds up close and explore other animals at the zoo. Please make sure your child comes to school on time. Wristbands for students and parents riding the bus will be distributed the morning of the field trip. This is your admission ticket to the zoo. I will give wristbands to families meeting us at the Zoo when we arrive. If you are meeting us at the zoo, please meet us at gate 9 (the field trip entrance). We are leaving the school at 9:15 and should get to the zoo around 9:30.
