Dear Bernheim Community,
We are excited about the upcoming field trips this week. We are asking all students to wear a blue, green or black t-shirt. They will be able to have cell phones while on the field trip however, we ask them not to be on social media during the school day. We have explained expectations for the students including the fact that they will stay with their group leaders in a given area, be kind and polite and follow the Bruin Way. They are going to have a great time and this will be such a happy memory for them!
Monday the Grizzlies (8th Graders) will take their field trip to Kentucky Kingdom.
Friday the Cubs and Bears have their field trip to the zoo and park respectively
