Cascadia Science and Engineering Night

The Cascadia Science and Engineering Night is April 25th and if students want to enter their science fair project they need to register by April 6th.

Here is the link to the PTA website with more information and signup. Because 5th graders are already doing a science fair project we highly encourage you to enter it in the this wonder PTA event.

PMR Information

Please make sure your child has a lunch, water and a pack to carry it in for the trip. Students might also want good deck shoes that appropriate for being on the boat. Sneakers or tennis shoes should work. Remind them not to bring any extra stuff. If you have any questions please feel free to contact me.

Here is a map for the field trip. I will be there at 8:15 am and we need to be collected before 8:40 in order to make sure everyone is on the boat on time. Please respond to this email with contact information for anyone who is dropping of your child. 

 

Here is a link to parking if you are going to walk your child down to the pier. Please remember they are doing construction on the sea wall and allow for ample time to avoid delays. Here is a link to a handout with preparation instructions.

Please remember to pick up your child promptly at 2:30.

Let me know if you have any further questions and thank you all for your support.
