ROUGE FACTORY FIELD TRIP

Thank you so much to those parents who volunteered to chaperon on our Rouge Assembly Plant field trip scheduled on Friday, December 8.    The Rouge guidelines allow for 4 chaperones per classroom.  In an effort to make it fair to all interested in attending, we pulled names from all of those who volunteered.  

Our chaperones include parents of the following students:

Team Butzin

Xander Acket

Maddie Sellke

Peter/Preston Johnson

Anna Carrel

Team Frishman

Elliott Gilleran

Gray Schindler

Betty Robinson

Adrian Ionascu

Our volunteers should arrive for the trip at 8:40 with a bagged lunch.  We plan to return to school around 12:30.   

Thank you so much for your support!
