Virginia City Field Trip
Information – Team Dauntless
Hello Students and Parents of Team
Dauntless,
This Thursday, April 16th, you will take
a step back in time as you explore the rich Nevada history of Virginia
City. When your first class of the day
is over (4*), go to your locker and gather everything you will need for the
field trip, then head directly to 6*. Do
not check in with your 5* teacher; an email has already been sent that you will
be on a field trip. You are responsible
for any missed classwork and homework for your 5* class.
You will be in a pre-determined,
chaperoned group. You may not switch
groups or leave your chaperone. You will
be responsible for completing a packet based on Virginia City’s historical
landmarks. You must carry a backpack
with a pencil and a thin folder to write on.
Your COMPLETED packet will be collected as you get off the bus at
Billinghurst. Busses will return to
school by 1:45 PM.
You also need to carry a sack lunch and
water in your backpack. Your group may eat at any time. You may bring extra
spending money for treats if time allows.
Wear your team t-shirt and comfortable walking shoes. Jeans or shorts are acceptable; pay attention to the weather and wear layers if necessary. Consider sunscreen and sunglasses. You must follow the school dress code (no
hats) and keep in mind the Bighorn Attitude as you respectfully tour the
sites. We STRONGLY encourage you to
leave your I-Pods, cell phones, and other electronics at home or in your locker
at school.
We look forward to an enriching experience
as you tour “the town that built San Francisco”!
Mrs. Rice, Mr. Ryan, Mr. Kivi
