LIVING HISTORY FIELD TRIP is Oct. 12th.  We need parent volunteers from about 10:45 to 2:15.  Students must return permission slips.  School lunches can be purchased but a student's account will be charged even if they bring their own lunch that day.  Sunscreen and a little extra spending money are suggested but not required.  Lunch can be purchased there but it might be a little pricey compared to the cost of school lunch or bringing lunch from home.  It's good food though!
