Many of you have been asking abouttaking siblings to the zoo with us! Wecontacted the District Officeregarding the policy for siblingsattending school field trips. It statesthat if you plan on attending the fieldtrip as a chaperone, that you may notbring siblings along. Therefore, if your are planning on attending thefield trip to the zoo as a chaperone,we are asking that you DO NOT bringother children along. If you havesigned up to chaperone and wereplanning on bringing a sibling, pleasecontact us immediately and we willfigure something out. If you haveany questions regarding this, pleasecontact us. Thanks so much forunderstanding!
