Virginia City Field Trip
Information – Team Prototype
Hello Students and Parents of Team
Prototype,
This Monday, May 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. We will be touring the historic Fourth Ward School as part of our field
trip, you are not allowed to eat any food in the museum. 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. Kivi, Mrs. Campbell
