Our field trip to the Racine Zoo is next Wednesday. I have plenty of parents to go with us. In fact, I will be refunding a couple of parents’ money. We can only take 3 parent chaperones this time. Thank you for your prompt responses. If you have not handed in your field trip permission slip or the $3, you need to do that as soon as possible. Remember all students need to pack a sack lunch with a drink. (all things must be disposable)
