Dear Parents!
We have several upcoming Field Trips and need Chaperones. It is nice to keep groups down to 5 people. DCPS requires 1 chaperone to every 10 students. This makes for some very large groups, so 1/5 is much better. If you volunteer to chaperone, your child may pick the people for their group. I can't promise they will get all of their choices, because everyone needs a chaperone. We will do the best we can.
Field trips and dates:
1 May 2014- World Of Nations. If you have not paid for lunch ticket, I can only get you a entrance pass and parking pass.
I need 42 chaperones for all of the sixth grade.
