Field Trip - Fort Worth Museum of Science & History - April 19th, 2023

We are excited to be going on a field trip! We will be visiting the Fort Worth Museum of Science and History on Wednesday, April 19th. We will enjoy a fun-filled day learning about space, dinosaurs, and history of Texas and the Southwest. We will also get to attend the Planetarium Exhibit.  The student cost is $7.50.

We would love to have volunteers to help chaperone our field trip. We are allowed to have 4 chaperones per class. The chaperone cost is $10.00. If you are interested in being a chaperone, please fill out the second sheet, and return it to your child’s teacher by Tuesday, March 28th. Your child’s teacher will reach out to you and confirm the chaperones for the field trip by Wednesday, March 29th and the chaperone payment will be due by Friday, March 31st. If you do not wish to be a chaperone, you can still join your child by paying the full admission fee of $16.00 at the door.

Boosterthon Information:

Our Fundraiser at a Glance:

1. Kickoff Event. Students will learn what to expect from the fun days ahead and how the fundraiser will work.
