All students should have taken home and had their parent/guardian sign their permission form for the salmon watch field trip that will be ALL DAY on Wednesday 11/10. We will leave school at 9am Wednesday and return at 3pm. It will be all the 6th graders attending this trip and is FREE of charge thanks to Oregon Trout! Students will be studying: riparian habitats, conducting water quality tests, viewing spawning salmon, and other stream/river species. Make sure if you DID not sign up for a sack lunch from the cafeteria, that you bring your own, and bring a RAIN JACKET! You never know what the weather will be like in our Coast Range RAIN FOREST.
