8th Grade Parents & Students,
For the Worlds of Fun trip we will be leaving at 8:30 am from school. We will stay in Worlds of Fun until 5:00 pm when we will meet at the main entrance and proceed to load in anticipation of departing Worlds of Fun by 5:30 pm. I will have students call on their way home to let you know about what time you will need to be at the middle school to pick them up.
If your student did not purchase an all day dining pass or ask for a school lunch, then please remember to send them with a sack lunch or money to buy food in the park. If you would like to send money with your student for other items at the park you may. The park is however cashless. If your student does not have a card they can change their cash into a card at the park. If you have any questions please feel free to contact me.
If you are a parent that is going please plan to either follow us down or meet us there. This year they are charging parking fees. Due to limited seating on the bus parents will not be able to ride the bus with the students.
