*Chicago Field Trip: We are all set and ready to go! We will leave on Tuesday, June 2 in the morning and return by 2:00 pm. Your child should bring a disposable sack lunch that day and $5 for ice cream or a special treat on the pier. Just as a reminder, the following parents will be joining us on the bus and boat: Jake's mom, Molly's dad, Clayton's mom, and Makaila's mom. Jacob's mom and Kayla's mom will meet us in the city for the boat ride. It will be an awesome day!
*Bowling: We will be bowling for gym class on Monday, June 1st in the morning. We will be coming back to school for lunch. Mrs. Schultz is requesting that students bring a sack lunch to school on the days that they are going bowling.
