Field Trips
We have been greatly blessed to have two Field Trip Coordinators for this year.  They are planning trips geared toward students in either Elementary or Middle-High school.  Many trips are fine for the whole family, however, you will want to check with the coordinator to make sure it is appropriate for younger or older siblings to attend.     
If you want more information about any of the listed field trips check the info table at Co-op on Mondays.
