Field Trip to the Dallas Zoo
We are super excited about our field trip to the Dallas Zoo next Thursday.
Please make sure your child brings a sack lunch to school that morning.
Don't forget all parents attending will have to pay their own way and will also have to meet us at the zoo. We do not have space on the bus for parents to ride with us. Feel free to carpool!
