When: Wednesday, February 19th
What: Kids will see the Wow Space Explorers Show, participate in hands on Math-gineer Activity, and explore the cool Sci Tech Discovery Center.
Bring: Each student will need to bring a disposable sack lunch and a plastic water bottle that can be thrown away.
Wear your Glenhope Field trip Shirt if possible. You will also want to bring a coat/sweatshirt as we need to each lunch outside and it is supposed to be chilly.
Please remember to pack one nut free snack for your child every day in their backpacks. We have snack at 10:00, as we do not go to lunch until 12:00 every day.
Teachers are allowed to have pre-packaged Veggie Straws or Skinny Pop (original flavors) on hand for students who may forget a snack. If you are able, and would like to sign up to provide any extra snacks to your homeroom teachers, we would be very appreciative.
