Spring Break is over, and spring has finally arrived. We're back in the classroom on Monday, but there are some important items on our agenda for the next few weeks. The first big thing on the schedule is our much-anticipated excursion to Jefferson City. Students will tour the capitol building, including moments inside the Senate and Assembly galleries, as well as a visit to the Governor's Mansion.
The trip will start early in the school day on Thursday, April 2, and we will not return to the school building until around 6:30 in the evening.
A second trip will not be far behind. This will be our yearly College Bound field trip. Fourth graders have the opportunity to tour Missouri State University in Springfield. More information about this trip is forthcoming.
We will make preparations, in the next couple of weeks, regarding my expectations on these trips. Each of these field trips are to locations where business is being conducted. We must not be a distraction in either location, and we must be aware and yield to the normal traffic flow. I'll go through all of the ins and outs of the capitol and the college visits thoroughly in upcoming days.
Finally, for each trip, we will request students to bring sack lunches (or lunches provided by the school cafeteria). For the Jefferson City adventure, we also request that each student bring $2 to help teachers pay for snacks and drinks on the bus.
