What an Adventure!

Just want to thank you all for your efforts with preparing your kids for our filed trip, and helping with food and gear. We certainly couldn’t do it without your help. What an amazing experience for the students. The Upper Kenai River float was spectacular as we began by seeing trumpeter swans, the clouds slowly dissipated, and we saw thousands of spawning red salmon.

Our stay at the Swanson River OEC was great, the after dinner skits were hilarious. The next morning they practiced water quality testing at Swanson River. I know they had some wonderful experiences, and I hope they shared some stories with you.

Upper Kenai River Rafting and Swanson River OEC Field Trip

Hello parents and guardians. You are most likely aware of our class field trip coming up this week on Wednesday the 15th and Thursday the 16th. First I’d like to thank you all for providing the support and help in order for our students to have this wonderful hands-on learning experience. I’ve sent home a couple of gear checklists, but please let me know if your child needs any gear and we will try our best to find some. Also if you signed up to provide any items or food please send them in on Tuesday morning.

Students need to arrive at school no later than 8:10am on Wednesday. We will pack gear in vehicles and have a meeting regarding our field trip. Students will be home in time for busses and regular dismissal on Thursday. We are looking forward to sharing pictures and our learning from this field trip. Once again thanks for your support!

Mr. Faris
