Field Trips
If you would like to chaperone our field trips later this year please be mindful that you will have to be finger printed first.
This is a new requirement by Central Office for all volunteers who will have students under their supervision. It is taking up to 1 month to get the fingerprints processed. The parent needs to fill out the form, Mr. Fitzgerald needs to approve it and then the parent takes the approved form to Central Office to get fingerprinted.  (We will send the approved forms home with the student after they are signed by Mr. Fitzgerald.)This process will need to be repeated at the beginning of EVERY school year.
