304 is heading to the Zoo!


304 Parents,
As a culminating activity for our life science unit on animals, we are going to take a field trip to the Great Plains Zoo and Delbridge Museum. While there, the students will take part in a scavenger hunt designed to explore characteristics, structures, habitats, and needs of the various animals found at the zoo.

We will be taking a bus from Discovery at 8:45 AM on Thursday, September 23rd and will be returning around 11:00 AM that morning, in time for our lunch at 11:05. The zoo is giving us a discounted price per child of $3.75.

If you have a zoo pass, it will need to be photocopied and sent with your child to school by Monday, September 20th. Please write on the photocopy that it is a child’s pass. Your child’s teacher will keep the photocopy and turn in to the zoo the day of the field trip.

If you do not have a zoo pass, please send $3.75 (cash) to school with your child by Monday, September 20th and we will pay the zoo with a check from the school.

Please have your child dress appropriately that day depending on weather conditions. We would like to encourage tennis shoes, pants, and jacket (if needed).

Thank you,
Mr. D.
