Trip Details

The kindergarten classes will be taking a field trip to Lazy L Safari Park on Thursday, April 26th. We will be departing at 9:00 that morning and returning around 2:00 in the afternoon. Lazy L Safari Park is a walk-thru zoo that features exotic animals from around the world in a comfortable and natural setting. For more information on the farm, you may visit www.lazylsafari.com.

Dress Code

Please dress your child in comfortable clothes and tennis shoes. Please watch the weather to see if a jacket will be necessary.

Lunch

A picnic lunch will be provided by the cafeteria at the regular cost of a school lunch.

Cost

Each student needs to send $5.00 to school before April 23rd to cover admission to the park. If assistance is needed to cover the cost of the field trip, please send a note to school.

Allergies

Because your child will be exposed to things typically found at a zoo, please list any allergies your child has. Also, please send any medications needed (i.e. asthma inhaler or EpiPen) to school on the 26th.

Kindergarten Testing
We will begin kindergarten achievement testing (similar to the MAP test) on Monday, April 16th. During the week of the 16th, it is extremely important that your child: get plenty of rest each night, eats a healthy breakfast (oatmeal, biscuit, eggs, or other non-sugary food), gets to school on time each morning, is only absent if absolutely necessary, and wears glasses to school. Please encourage your child to do his/her best on the test.
