Sycamore Academy has booked buses for transportation to and from filed trips. This is a school-sponsored field trip, therefore, STUDENTS MUST RIDE THE BUS TO AND FROM THE FIELD TRIP DESTINATION. Students will not be released from the field trip to a parent/guardian until the end of the field trip, except in the case of an emergency.
No cost for the field trip, but your student may want to bring money for assorted candy, snacks, beverages and souvenirs.
