2. Have your child wear their swimsuit under his/her clothes to school. The administration has kindly requested no two piece bathing suits.
3. PLEASE make sure to apply sunscreen to your child before coming to school!
4. Please help your child label and pack:
- A disposable snack and water bottle for the morning.
- Sunscreen.
- A full changes of clothing. The students will have an opportunity to change out of wet clothes before the bus ride home, so make sure to send whatever they will need.
- A towel.
- A bag to hold all of these things!
6. Lunch is provided. We'll have chicken tenders, chips, watermelon, drinks, and dessert. Kids are welcome to bring their own lunch if they prefer.
7. Bad weather will change our plans. If the forecast looks bad for the 2nd, we will move the field trip to our rain date, June 3rd.
8. Last but not least, please remind your children that safety ALWAYS comes first and that a positive attitude and bright smile are important, too. Brownsville has a great relationship with the Lake Monocan Staff, and we are eager to introduce them to our fantastic fifth grade class.
