Austin Field Trip
We have an official date for our Austin trip!
Thursday, May 21, 2014
5:45 AM to 10:00 PM (day trip)
(SPECIAL NOTE: As of right now, Anna ISD has scheduled Friday, May 22nd as a BAD WEATHER MAKE-UP DAY. If we experience the same type of winter as we did last year and have to make this day up due to cancellations of school, students will be required to attend school on Friday, May 22, 2014. We are hoping that this will not be an issue, but we did want to make you aware of this possibility!)
Students should arrive at Rattan on Thursday, May 21, 2014 at 5:30 am. We will depart from Rattan Elementary at 5:45 AM sharp and travel to Austin, Texas by charter bus. We will visit the Bob Bullock Texas State History Museum, eat a sack lunch on the capitol grounds (students are responsible for bringing their own), and tour the Capitol Building while in Austin. We will depart Austin by 4:15 pm and travel to Cici's Pizza in Georgetown, Texas where we will eat dinner. We will leave Georgetown by 5:15 pm to travel back to Anna. We will arrive back at Rattan at approximately 9:00 pm.
The cost to your 4th grader is
FREE.
Chaperones will need to pay approximately $20 for admission into the Bob Bullock Texas State History Museum and IMAX movie. Parents/chaperones will pay upon entry to the museum.
Any parent/adult may chaperone pending a background check. Each chaperone MUST provide their own transportation. In the past, we have had parents carpool and follow the charters to Austin. Some families even decide to stay in Austin for the long weekend.
There will be a MANDATORY chaperone meeting on Thursday, May 15, 2014 in the Rattan Elementary cafeteria at 6:00 pm.
