Field Trip

Good morning,

Sunday is the birthday of our state, Arizona! What an appropriate way to announce the fourth grade field trip! This year, we will visit our State Capitol! The field trip will occur on Friday, February 26^th!  Students will be bussed to Phoenix. Students will tour the Capitol grounds, the museum, and the senate or house floor. Students will eat lunch across the street in Wesley Bolin Plaza. There will also be a scavenger hunt.

We will need five chaperones per class. To make things fair, what I have done in the past is as follows: Any parent interested in chaperoning must submit their intent to me by February 15th. Once I have all the interested parents, I will simply choose via a lottery system. If you are not chosen to be a chaperone, you are still welcome to join us for the lunch/scavenger hunt portion of the trip! All chaperones and lunch/scavenger hunt guests must have their fingerprint clearance through Great Hearts. On the day of the field trip, students must take the assigned buses to and from the field trip. You may not "sign out" students from the field trip.

There is no cost to this field trip as Tax Fund dollars have it covered!  You do, however, need to sign your child up at: https://archwayareteclubs.wufoo.com/forms/arizona-state-capitol-miss-prestipino-4b/

Please sign up no later than Sunday, February 14th, as we need to get total numbers to the tour directors.

As we get closer to the trip I will send out more information and any supplies needed.

Please e-mail me with any questions!

Have a great President's Day weekend.
