Headlines & Happenings at Sunflower Elementary
Arvin Gottlieb Planetarium Field Trip & Explore KC
Thanks to everyone who purchased items during the Price Chopper Shop-A-Thon we are able to take every Sunflower student to the Arvin Gottlieb Planetarium at Union Station next week.
All grades are scheduled to see Sky Station LIVE: Season Star Tour. This 4K Show is a one-of-a-kind journey that takes students through the ever-changing night sky and beyond. Students will go back in time and learn about the mythology that began to shape our understanding of the world and discover the many constellations that can be seen in the night sky.
Following the show and lunch, classes will tour Union Station, the area around Union Station and ride the KC Street Car. Although they will not be outside long, students should dress for the weather as they transition from one location to another.
Busses will leave at 8:15 each morning. It is important students arrive to school on time.
