Grade 8 Washington DC Trip:
Grade 8 Students and Parents Attending the Washington DC trip,
I hope this email finds you well. I am writing to remind you of the upcoming meeting regarding the Washington D.C. trip scheduled for Tuesday, April 23rd, at 6:30 pm. The meeting will take place at the AHS auditorium and is intended for all students who will be traveling to Washington D.C. in 2024, as well as their parents.
During this meeting, we will cover some essential information regarding the trip. Although the meeting will be brief, it is important that all attendees are present to ensure everyone is adequately informed.
Additionally, we would like to offer you the opportunity to consider purchasing a Washington D.C. T-shirt and Bucket Hat for your son/daughter to wear during the trip. Although not mandatory, this helps to create a sense of cohesion among the students and makes them more recognizable to their chaperones, especially in crowded areas. Deadline to purchase a tshirt or hat will be April 24th 2024.
We look forward to seeing you all at the meeting and discussing the exciting details of the upcoming trip.
