End of Year Class Party “Fast Pass”
If you are planning to attend* your child's classroom End of Year party on May 25th and would like to avoid long lines at check-in, please click here to fill out our online RSVP form by 12:00pm on May 24th. We will have your badge pre-printed and waiting for you outside the office on the day of the party for quick and easy pick-up. With the large number of parents planning to attend the parties, we highly recommend parents take advantage of this “fast pass” option to help things run smoothly on this busy day. (Only one RSVP per person necessary. You do not need to RSVP multiple times if attending multiple parties.) *Please note, we kindly ask that you not bring younger siblings to the class parties as they can be a distraction for the students and teachers. Thank you for your help and understanding this this matter.
Trout Field Trip
May 24, next Thursday. Due to the distance and traffic of our trip, all 2nd graders must arrive on campus at 6:45 am for a 7:00 departure. We have reserved charter buses for our trip. We are asking that all students pack a snack, disposable water bottle and a lunch/drink. We will make the following stops to release the trout that we have been raising since January and a 2nd stop to tour a hatchery.
The location of the release is a private residence in Canyon Lake, Texas. We will provide the exact address as the date comes closer.
The A.E. Wood Fish Hatchery is just off of I-35, only about 30 minutes from the release point (507 Staples Rd, San Marcos, TX 78666).
We will do our best to return to campus as close to dismissal time but with unforeseen traffic and schedule, we will anticipate a 3:30 return. We will keep the school's office posted on ETA and will send an email to parents on our arrival time the day of.
