Camp updates for the Fall (2018)
Attention Parents of Current 4th and 5th Grade Students
Attached are the flyers for NEXT years 5th grade Astrocamp (so this applies to THIS year’s 4th graders) and NEXT year’s 6th Grade PaliCamp (so this year’s 5th graders) trips. Your children should have brought, or will be bringing, home these flyers in their backpacks.
The purpose of these flyers is to:
- Let you know that these optional overnight trips will be occuring EARLY in the school year.
- Allow you to save money if you would like your child to participate.
- Let you know that we will be having a meeting the FIRST WEEK of school to get all of the paperwork started.
Why are we starting so early? Space is limited, and the October 13th trip will sneak up on us really fast once school starts. We want everyone to have an opportunity to plan because the deadline for this trip will be right at the beginning of the school year.
This is for current 4th grade students (5th graders of the 2018-19 school year)
