Please pack a sack lunch, drink and snack for your child. We will go to the Critter Barn right in the morning, have lunch there, and stay a little longer after lunch. Then we will go to Lawrence Park to play and eat snack to end the day. We will be back to school at 3:15 for bus and pick up. Drivers, please bring a cooler to put the kids’ lunch in(each of you will take about 4-5 kids’ lunch) and bring all the boosters you have. Thanks!
