    Join us on our trip to Williamsburg!

    An exciting overnight trip to Williamsburg, Virginia has been planned for May 4th and 5th for all fifth graders.  The trip will introduce students to life in the southern colonies during the 1700’s.     

    The cost of the trip is $220.00, which includes the bus, motel, admission, guides and three (3) meals – dinner, breakfast and lunch.  The payment can be made in full or it can be made in installments of $40 per month.   

    If the trip needs to be cancelled for any reason, $60.00 of the $220.00 payments is NON-REFUNDABLE. 

    Nuestra escuela ha hecho los arreglos necesarios para que nuestros estudiantes del quinto grado vayan a una excursion a Williamsburg, Virginia en Mayo del 2010.  La excursion es parte de nuestros estudios sociales y de la vida colonial en el sur de nuestro pais durante el siglo de 1700. 

    El costo de la excursión será $220.00 y cubre el autobus, el hotel, y 3 comidas – cena, desayuno y almuerzo.  Los pagos para ésta excursion deben hacerse por adelantado para asegurar el autobus y el hotel.  Las reservaciones requieren un depósito de $60.  Este depósito no tiene reembolso.  Tenemos un plan de pagar en que pagas $40 cada mes.
