Field Trip to The Library

On Friday May 16th we will be going on a field trip to the public library. Please make sure your child comes to school with a paper or plastic bagged lunch. It would also be a great idea to put bug spray on your child before they arrive at school. After the library visit we will be having a picnic lunch at an outside park. Please contact me if you have any questions or concerns.

Field Trip


We are excited about our second semester field trip to the Tallahassee Junior Museum! Our trip will be Wednesday, April 2nd.  We will arrive at the Museum around 10 am and leave at 1 pm. We will have lunch and recess on site.
First grade will split into two groups. One group will begin exploring Florida’s natural habitat and the animals that we can find throughout Florida. Our second group will begin exploring and discussing schools, stores, and Florida living from long ago. After lunch the groups will switch activities and continue to explore!
Please remember, like all field trips, to send a bag lunch full of healthy options. Make sure everything is disposable because students will not be able to bring anything back to school.
This field trip is exciting for us all because it’s interactive at every turn and allows for amazing discussions on site and back at school.
We look forward to another fun-filled, successful field trip full of learning and inquiry.
