8th Grade Field Trip

Dear Parents,

The 8th Grade Blue and Gold Teams are preparing for our spring field trip! This year we will visit the Maryland Science Center on Friday, June 5th 2015. The trip offers a unique chance to combine classroom learning and fun at the Science Center. The students will spend their day viewing exhibits in Earth & Nature, Health & Human Body, Physics & Phenomena, and Space & Aerospace Science that connect to the state Science Standards. Students will have plenty of time to explore the many interactive exhibits the Science Center has to offer. We will also watch an IMAX presentation, entitled “The Human Body.”

We will depart from Northley at 7:30 AM and return at 6:00 PM. Students must be at Northley by 7:00 AM. The cost of the field trip is $45.00 per student. Money is due by Friday, May 1, 2015. If you would like to make 2 payments, the 1st payment of $20 is due Friday, March 27, 2015. Please return the permission slip below with either cash or check payable to “Penn Delco School District” to the homeroom teacher. We will be eating lunch at the Baltimore Inner Harbor. Students may pack their own lunch or bring money the day of the trip.
