S.T.E.M. & Skate at Carousel Skate Center
On Thursday, April 6th, the Meadowlark 5th graders will be taking a field trip to the Carousel Roller Skating Rink to participate in a STEM lesson as well as roller skating. We will depart from Meadowlark shortly after students arrive at school that day. The PTO is covering the cost of the field trip for us. Students will NOT need to bring a sack lunch because we will be back at the school in time for lunch, however, students can get a $5 snack/drink package or $2 drink at Carousel. The snack options are nachos or pizza. Please make sure your child wears socks. We are looking forward to a fun and unique learning experience, as well as plenty of exercise! If you have any questions, please contact one of the 5th grade teachers or myself crusinbt@usd385.org.

Having fun while being active is a key to developing a healthy lifestyle.
