Eighth Grade Student Class Trip
DATE:
September 15, 2009
The PTO is once again planning several fundraising activities to supplement the LAC Board of Education’s funding for your 8th Grade trip to New York City.
The PTO contacted the Davis Day Trips in Pennsville to help with the organization of your trip itinerary. All students will be able to attend this class trip. The PTO is asking for students to assist the organization in raising the funds to pay for the chartered bus, all tours and dinner. Parents are encouraged to attend this trip with the understanding that parents pay their own tour fees and their own dinner.
This trip is scheduled to be paid for by the fundraising efforts of all students in the 8th grade. Students only have to assist in three fundraising activities. The three simple and easy to do activities is attend the Halloween Dance; get involved with two Trash Pickups; and encourage others to purchase the greens for the Christmas holiday.
When is the trip? The trip is in the late Spring during the month of May. So you have plenty of time to get involved in the fundraising activities.
Mrs. Dare will be provided with a thermometer score sheet in her class room which will track/graph the class progress financially. If you have other fundraising ideas for your class trip feel free to share them with Mrs. Dare who will communicate the ideas to me.
Have a great 8th grade year and make it a positive experience.
