Week of October 7th - 11th
Happy October homeschooling families!!
There are some great field trips coming up this month including more pumpkin farm trips.
Please remember these rules regarding our field trips:
1. New field trips open Tuesdays at 10 am.
2. Every family needs a chaperone. Students have to have a parent attend, no drop-offs.
3. Don't forget your Free Chaperone ticket. For every 2 enrolled students, you get one free chaperone but you must select the "free chaperone" ticket option when signing up.
We will be having our monthly Parent's Night Out this coming week. What do we do this night, you wonder? We grab some dinner, dessert or coffee and chat. This is a time to get together as homeschool parents and encourage each other, share ideas and homeschool tips and help answer any questions you may have.
We have these get together's once a month in different locations of San Diego County. We will be in La Mesa this week. Please consider joining us.
Below you will see information on our Math Day and Boat Regatta happening soon. Inspire's Fall High School Expo is coming up quickly, save the date for November 14!
Be sure to find the details for all of these events, and more, below!
Have a great week!
Upcoming Events
Boat Regatta
Come join us for a fun STEM activity! Using your creativity and only the provided supplies of cardboard, duct tape and a box cutter, BUILD YOUR BOAT and be ready to ride it across the pool.
24 boats will compete! Tickets can be purchased under one student's account for their entire team. Teams can consist of a whole family or group (up to 6 people). All team members will help build the boat and two people from each group will row it across the pool! We're going to have some STEM fun, prizes, and make lots of memories!
