What this means for your family
Your child will participate in grade-specific field trips and assemblies throughout the year, many at no cost to families. Some overnight trips (4th-5th grade) require parent fees. Activities connect to classroom learning in science, history, arts, and social-emotional development. The board is approving this schedule to ensure educational experiences beyond the classroom are available for all students.
