The next steps in our field trip planning is planning out what sites we want to see and letting the chaperone's exactly what their jobs are.
First is planning where the students want to go. We held a meeting and here is a list of sites in no particular order.
The White House
The Lincoln Memorial
The Washington Monument
The Holocaust Museum
any other places will be picked if time remains in the day.
The Next step is briefing the chaperone's on how to keep our kids safe while in a big city compared to little Lock Haven:
First when we get there we will be taken right to the hotel so we can drop off our luggage and the chaperone's are they only ones caring bags, they will hold onto the children's extra money and any medication.
Second, we will all have walkie talkies so if we do get separated we can be in contact, the school provides these for all big field trips.
Third, all the chaperons have been given a list of 5 students that they are to keep tabs on any time we go anywhere.
We are hoping that these rules will keep everyone safe and allow everyone to have a happy trip!!

Permission Slips, Transportation, Hotel Rooms
Each of our students had to take home a permission slip to get signed by his or her parents or guardians. Attached is a copy of the perssion slip and chaperone form. Of the 25 students in our 6th grade, 20 will be attending the field trip.
Also, this week we booked our transportation and our hotel rooms. Fullington Tours will be supplying us with buses for the duration of our trip. The cost for the buses is $30 a person. With the 20 students attending, 4 chaperons, and 4 teachers attending the trip, the cost for the buses is $840.
We will be staying in a Best Western hotel. We will need 9 rooms at $99.99 a night. So the total cost of the hotel rooms is $899.91.

Fundraising for Field Trip to Washington, D.C.
In order to experience a successful learning event, planning must take place. This is where fundraising for an eventful field trip occurs. A class of sixth grade students will be taking a field trip to Washington, D.C., learning the historical significance of certain monuments. By allowing the students to fundraise, costs pertaining to the trip will be greatly reduced. The three fundraisers intended to be sold by the students are: candy, candles, and Sheetz M.T.O tickets.
The candy bar fundraiser, distributed from Hershey's candies, will be put toward the cost of gas money for the buses needed to be used for the trip. The total amount of money fundraised by the students was eleven hundred dollars.
The candle fundraiser, by candle fundraisers USA, will be put toward the cost of hotel fees for the students, chaperones, and teachers for the stay within Washington, D.C. The total amount of money fundraised by the students was eight hundred dollars.
The Sheetz M.T.O. tickets, distributed from the Sheetz corporation, will be specifically used towards the cost of food for the students. The total amount of money raised by the students used toward the cost of food was once again, eight hundred dollars.
