DC Parents,
I want to quickly inform everyone of a few things going on with the DC trip:
I want to quickly inform everyone of a few things going on with the DC trip:
- Medicine is a very time-sensitive issue for our DC trip. We are asking, as in our parent meeting, that all medical forms are due to the school nurse by Friday, February 14th. These forms must be completed by your child’s doctor and each medicine does require an additional form. Forms can be found at: https://mrmsdc2020.weebly.com/uploads/6/1/4/4/61443393/ucps_medical_consent_form_2.pdf
- Actual Medicines, in original packaging, are due to the school nurse by Friday, February 28th. We ask that any questions pertaining to medicines are directed to our school nurse Mrs. McSweeney.
- We will not have an additional parent meeting. At this point we have had four parent meetings prior to the trip and in an effort to respect your time I feel like we can communicate needs through our email system and website.
- If for any reason you have any questions please reach out to Mr. Sams directly
- Also keep in mind that we will utilize twitter: @dcmavs2020 and our weebly site: www.mrmsdc2020.weebly.com to communicate all information leading up to the trip. You will find all the information there under the “updates” tab. Please make sure you check weekly leading up to the trip.
- Lastly, we are working hard to construct final “touring groups” and buses for the trip. There are a lot of considerations in buses so we do not allow students to choose a bus or a touring group. In early December each student chose a four-person room group that they will tour with. We may add an additional four people to their “touring group” so those 8 students and a teacher/chaperone will be together for all of the touring components of the trip. Please just be aware that we typically do not put out bus lists until the week before the trip as to make sure that we have all medical information for the students. This is one reason that it is vital to get this medical information to the school nurse and double-check she has it as it does hold up the final process. Bus touring groups will only be posted in school hallways before the trip.
