    Outdoor Education

    6th Grade Parents and Guardians

    Parents and guardians of 6th graders who are attending Outdoor Ed,

    We are so excited that our trip is next week! Here are a few last details for you:
    On Monday morning, students may begin arriving at 7:55 with their luggage, or they can take their normal transportation to school. Luggage can be any size, as long as each student only has one item and they are able to carry it themselves. Students may also have their small personal bag (such as a string backpack) if they wish. Luggage will be dropped off in the gym, and then students will report to their assigned classrooms.
    When we return on Wednesday, please be aware that we need to sort luggage and return it to the students before students can be released to parents. We anticipate returning to school around 1:30. If you would like to pick up your child, we will have a sign out process in the front lobby. Otherwise, students are welcome to take their normal transportation home on Wednesday afternoon.

    If you have any further questions, please email Jamie Daniller at jamie_daniller (at) hcpss.org
    Thank you!
