FIELD TRIP INFORMATION
April 26, 2017
Dear Parent or Guardian:
The entire 7th grade will be attending the FMA Live! performance at River Bend Middle School on Thursday, May 4th.
FMA Live! Is an award-winning science education concert from Honeywell and NASA. With FMA Live!, middle school students will never look at science and engineering the same way again. FMA Live!’s Forces in Motion show is an interactive, traveling hip-hop concert that teaches Newton’s Universal Law of Gravity and Three Laws of Motion.
There is no cost to the student, Catawba County Schools is covering all expenses.
Students will be traveling by bus to Riverbend Middle School, 4670 Oxford School Rd. Claremont, NC 28610.
The buses will depart JFMS at 9:00 A.M.and return to JFMS at 1:00 P.M.
On the return trip, we will be stopping at Southside Park in Newton, N.C. to eat lunch. Students need to bring a bag lunch and drink for the picnic (lunch boxes are welcome). NO COOLERS WILL BE TAKEN- make sure you pack non-perishables.
If your student has a medical need requiring them to self-carry medication, please remember to send needed inhalers or epipens with them on the day of the field trip. If you have any questions or concerns about medical conditions, please contact your student's homeroom teacher.
If you have any questions or concerns about the field trip you may contact Katina Peck at katina_peck@catawbaschools.net.
Thank you, JFMS 7th Grade Teachers
