Big Apple Circus

Permission forms went home recently for the fifth grade trip to the Big Apple Circus on Wednesday, November 19th. We wanted to celebrate all of the hard work students will be putting in to prepare for the 5th grade Social Studies Test.

The price of the trip is $16, and we will be traveling to the Circus, which is held in Manhattan's Lincoln Center, via subway. Students should bring bagged lunches and money to purchase one snack from the concessions, if they'd like - no glass bottles, please! Please email us if you'd like more information, or if you haven't gotten the form.

Leveled Book Reading Made Easier
