The Intrepid and Carnegie Hall

This coming week we have two exciting field trips.  

On Thursday April 29th, the middle school will go to the Intrepid.  We will have a guided tour as well as a workshop to stimulate our minds (and hearing from students who have gone already, it should be fun as well.)

Next Wednesday on Cinco de Mayo the middle school will once again make a trip to Carnegie Hall.  This time we will be listening to music of Mexico, a unit they have been studying in their music class.

I just have to say how exciting it is to live in an area where such great field trips are available merely minutes away.  Please talk to your children about these trips and engage them in conversations about what they have taken away from going to these places.
