ZOO Field Trip Friday, Nov. 18th

We will be taking our first field trip to the zoo the Friday before Thanksgiving break ( 11/18/11). The San Diego Zoo field trip is free for all 2nd grade students in San Diego County. Our bus will be paid for by the money raised from our  2nd grade recycling program.  I have added a fun website for the kids under Science or you can click on this zoo link.

* I have had more parent requests to go with us than places for chaperons. I can’t take any more parents, sorry.
