Oregon Coast Trip

Our beach trip is just one week away! Make sure your child has turned in their permission form and their money. Below is a copy of the letter that I sent home and through email:


5th Grade Beach Trip

The fifth grade students will be taking a field trip on Friday, October 17th to visit the Hatfield Marine Science Center and the Oregon Coast Aquarium in Newport. The bus will depart at 8:00 A.M. Students will need to be here at 7:45 A.M. We plan on returning by 4:00 pm.

To help pay for the cost of this trip, students need to bring $10.00. Students will also need to bring a sack lunch and appropriate clothing for the weather. Students may also bring a book, a game boy, headphones, etc. If these items are lost, Forest Ridge is not responsible.

We will need 10 to 15 chaperones total. School district policy requires all chaperones to have a criminal history background check completed and approved (takes 3-4 weeks) before attending. If you are interested and have completed the form, please indicate below. If you have not completed a form and would like to go on a future trip please ask at the office for a form and turn it in soon so you will be able to attend our next trip. Because of limited space on the bus, all chaperones will need to provide their own transportation, carpooling together.

We are looking forward to this exciting adventure!
