Thanks to Chris & Angie Circo for their assistance in planning this event.
*We will be going to the zoo on Monday, 5/18. I would like to get at least 4-5 chaperones to join us. You must be SAFE Environment trained. Please email me if you would like to join us! You will be able to use zoo passes for this trip. If you would like to use your zoo pass, please send in a photocopy of the front and back of your card. MAKE SURE TO WRITE YOUR NAME ON THE PAPER! If you are chaperoning, please indicate that the pass will be used The Gospel writer who also wrote the Acts of the Apostles was for 1 adult and 1 child. DRESS CODE FOR THE ZOO: Students will be required to wear this year's turquoise Martyr Marathon t-shirt and shorts of their choice. If your child no longer has that t-shirt, a uniform shirt and shorts of their choice may be worn. We are requiring a common shirt for safety reasons. This will allow teachers and chaperones to easily spot and keep track of SSM students. Students will also want to wear comfortable walking shoes - no sandals or flip flops. Make sure shorts are appropriate length for school. More information will be coming with regard to what students are allowed to bring to the zoo (lunch, spending money, camera, etc. )
