MS Trips Information Meeting on Tuesday, Jan. 28


Grades > Pre-K to 8

Middle Grades Parents,

With the middle school trips quickly approaching during the week of February 10th, we would like to invite you to an information session for parents of middle-grade students attending the field trips. The session will take place on January 28th from 4:15 to 5:00 p.m. in Thatcher Hall's Ledbetter Commons.

During the session, we will review key details, including:

  • Departure and arrival times
  • Hotel locations
  • Specific attractions
  • Policies and procedures

We’ll also address any last-minute questions you may have.

If you’re unable to attend, no need to worry—I will email notes and handouts from the meeting that afternoon.

For those who prefer to join virtually, you can use the following link: https://meet.google.com/dob-wrhm-xfz

We look forward to seeing you there!
