Wednesday lunch meetings are MANDATORY to keep your spot on the trip and attendance will be taken at each meeting. This is the best way we have of answering questions and knowing that ALL students attending the trip have heard the same message regarding dates, deadlines, rules, and expectations. Students who are absent from school on the day of a meeting are excused from the meeting, but MUST check in with Mrs. Woodell upon their return to school in order to receive the information missed.
See Below for information about LAST YEAR'S MEETINGS. Meeting information for 2019 meetings will be updated in DECEMBER 2018.
