6th Grade is heading to Outdoor School

We are just over a week away from heading to Outdoor School. You may be saying the same thing as I am, I'm not ready!!!! Hopefully your students are, it will be a wonderful experience for them. I really hope they are getting excited.

We have spent 3 days discussing Outdoor School during out science class. We will spend another day next week. Today I discussed the packing list and a copy of it should have been sent home with your student. If you have questions about what to pack, please feel free to ask me. The big NO NO is electronics. The big YES YES is waterproof gear (coat and boots).

Here is a picture of a scenic view as well as the dining hall. It might give you a bit of a taste of what is to come.
