On Friday, April 21 after school, we will be decorating which is a big job. Students can earn points toward their 8th Grade class trip by coming with a parent to help (make sure to sign the points sheet when you come into volunteer). It is important that they have an adult with them so that it is a productive process so please don't just send them alone. If you are able to attend the decorating on Friday, it would be appreciated. The theme the 8th grade picked is NEON so it will be a bright experience! Students do not need a date (many attend in groups), but should dress up as it is semi-formal.
