Dear Parents,
On April 14th the third grade will be traveling to the Prairie Fire Natural History Museum in Overland Park, KS. We will be exploring the Brain Exhibit, Great Hall, and Discovery Room at the museum. This trip will involve many hands on opportunities and address many of our science standards.
Each child will need a sack lunch and a drink for the day. They will need to dress appropriate for the weather and have on good sturdy shoes.
Busses will be loading at 8:45 and returning to school about 2:00 pm.
We would love to have parents serve as chaperones for our classes, however we have limited bus space available for parents. Each class will be able to accommodate two parents on the bus. Extra chaperones will need to travel to the Prairie Fire Museum in their own vehicle or carpool with other parents on the trip. The cost for adults is $5.50 and will need to be paid upon arriving at the museum. Parents will also need a sack lunch and a drink. If you would like to attend the field trip with your child, please fill out the bottom section of this notice and send it back to your child’s teacher by April 1st. We will notify parents if their name is chosen to ride the bus. We would like to ask that other siblings not attend this field trip, thank you for your cooperation.
If you have any questions feel free to email or send a note to your child’s classroom teacher. We are looking forward to a fun filled exciting day!
Sincerely,
Third Grade Team
