Also, a huge thanks to all the moms, dads, and grandparents that accompanied their child to Uncle Bill’s Pumpkin Farm. We had such a great time!

Parents – Please have your child at the McCann Center at 10:30 a.m.  You will need to check in with one of the teachers to receive your itinerary for the day.  Please read it carefully and note important meeting times.  We will have coolers for you to store your lunch at the front doors of the McCann Center. (When packing your lunch, please remember to mark your bag with your name).

We plan to be back at the McCann Center around 1:45 p.m.  If it is a rainy day, we will be back slightly earlier.  We will not cancel unless the weather is absolutely not cooperating.  Please remember to dress for the weather.

All $9.00 fees must be paid before October 6.  Student fees are already paid by the activity fee.

A huge thank you to the parents who helped out during our trip to Mariposa!  We could not do these special outings without you.
