Our Jr High Shop Class is taking a Field Trip to Skyline Cycle on Wednesday, October 22nd. The students are ready to go & a big THANK YOU to everyone in the class for getting their permission slips in on time. There is no need to make arrangements for transportation. We are leaving together from the school and will arrive back at the school for normal pickup.

1:15 p.m. – Certified parent driver will shuttle us to the bike shop

2:40 p.m. – We will head back to the school

We will learn how a Bike Shop operates & be introduced to the proper use of tools and how to properly take care of a bike. The students are looking forward to it.
