Bandelier Field Trip - 9/26


Dear Parents,
We are excited to be able to go on this trip as a kickoff to our New Mexico History studies in 3rd and 4th grade!  Please return the permission slip ASAP, if you haven’t already.  Here are the trip details:

1.      We leave at 8:30 sharp, so please have your child at school on time.

2.     Please pack a lunch and a water bottle for your child.

3.     Please apply sunscreen at home, if you choose.

4.     We have allotted space on the bus for 10 parent chaperones.  If you are interested in chaperoning, please contact Mr. Hugh or Ms. Kelly.  First come, first served.

5.     Students must ride the bus to Bandelier.  Your child can be released into your custody after the conclusion of activities at Bandelier, with a parentally signed release form.

6.     Please, do not bring siblings or other non-enrolled children.  This is an educational field trip, and additional children are a distraction to the learning process.

7.      We expect to return by 4:00.  Please make aftercare arrangements, or plan on picking up your child at 4:00.  We will not be able to get children on the afternoon bus routes.

Thanks for your help getting your child ready.  Here’s to a great learning experience! 

Ms. Kelly and Mr. Hugh
