Permission Slips

There are currently two permission slips roaming around. :)  Many of you have signed and returned them. Thank you!
One slip is for The Young People's concert on Tuesday, the 8th. 
The other slip is for this Friday, the 4th at Marshall. 
Both field trips are free of charge, so they can be turned in the day of the trip.
This Friday, for the Marshall trip, students need to have a packed lunch.
