Dear Families,
We will be taking a field trip to Crescent Beach State Park on Monday, June 13th. The rain date is scheduled for Wednesday, June 15th. We will be leaving the school at 8:45 with an estimated return time of 2:30. We will be exploring the tide pools and the animals that live there.
All chaperones will need to provide their own transportation, however, your entry fee will be covered by the district. If you are planning on following the bus you should arrive at school by 8:15 to go over rules for the field trip. Students are not allowed to ride with their parents in cars. Students must ride to and from the field trip on the bus. Siblings are not allowed if you are chaperoning for this field trip as you will be responsible for a group of students.
Students will need to wear appropriate shoes to climb on the rocks. Shoes should have rubber soles and have straps and/or laces to keep them on your child’s feel. (NO FLIP FLOPS!) In the interest of preserving the ecological balance of the beach, we are not allowed to take rocks, shells and/or anything else we might find home with us. The children will be able to spend some time exploring the tide pools and identifying some of the shells and other sea life that they find on the beach. If you are a chaperone, please make sure that all “living” finds are returned to their original home.
The children will not be allowed in the water!!! Please do not send your child wearing a bathing suit. Your child will need a towel to sit on at the beach, at hat, sunscreen, a water bottle and a bag lunch with some snacks and a couple of drinks (NO GLASS BOTTLES PLEASE). We will also be having snack when we arrive at the beach. Please apply sunscreen on your child before sending them to school.
