Dear Families,
Eagle Fern is just around the bend! Here's a very full list of things to know/do/be aware of!
Friendly reminder - our school does lots and lots of fundraising all year long for the GO FUND - this fund is to ensure that all children get to participate in all activities at SES. Please ask for a scholarship if you need it. And, all students on free/reduced lunch recieve trips 1/2 price, just let Kristy in the office know. WE WANT EVERYONE TO GO!
**REQUEST** Do you have a thermarest to loan? Many students will be in the gym and will need one! Please label it with your name and phone number and bring it in to the office! Muchas gracias!
For our trip to Eagle Fern next week, students need to be at SES by8:45am on Monday, October 7th. We return by bus on Wednesday around 2pm to reflect in our classrooms until the 3:15 dismissal.
Where to meet on Monday morning: Meet on basketball courts if dry or in the auditorium if wet.

Students should find the area for their core teacher. Go there with luggage clearly labeled with student name. (Teacher will have masking tape for labeling if needed, but ideally it is done prior.)
Students will take daypack onto bus with them--so it should contain supplies such as pencil, color pencils, a sack lunch, and water bottle.
Medications: Parent/guardian turns medications in original container into nurse after filling out a form that will be available at check-in. This includes ALL medications, even over-the-counter ones such as aspirin or throat lozenges.
Food allergies or dietary restriction: Please let your student's core teacher know ASAP if there are any allergies or restrictions to certain foods so that we may accomodate them, if possible, or if you will be bringing supplemental food due to an allergy or restriction.
Birthdays: If your student has a birthday while we are on this trip, please inform core teacher.
Behavior: Have a conversation with your student about appropriate behavior while at camp with a whole lot of other middle schoolers. Though we are at a camp, it is still considered school time, so those rules still apply.
We want all students to have fun and to learn. In order for that to happen we will need adequate rest during our down time. Also, encourage your student to be friendly with and speak with students they may not know. It's a great time to meet new people or get to know others better.
