Dear Eighth-Grade Parents and Guardians,
We are happy to inform you that our eighth-grade field trip to Washington, D.C. is still going to take place May 9-11. Our rooms at the Hyatt Regency Dulles Hotel in Herndon, Virginia for our students and chaperones are secured. Additionally, Lakefront Lines is honoring the contract they had with Discovery Tours for our six buses, because it was paid in full. We are working with Nowak Tours of Valley City and have confirmed the travel itinerary for our three-day field trip. This will include all of the various memorials and museums, wreath laying at Arlington National Cemetery, dinner/dance on the second night, and meals.
I will follow-up in the coming days with a video message to all our parents to review the itinerary and plans that were originally discussed at our parent meeting on April 17.
The North Royalton Board of Education supports this educational and meaningful opportunity for our children and wants parents to be assured there will be no additional costs for this trip. Also, North Royalton City Schools wants to give thanks to Nowak Tours for helping us make this trip a reality for students in less than a 24-hour time period. Additionally, thank you to Lakefront Lines for honoring the transportation contract. This trip would have been canceled without the help of Nowak Tours and Lakefront Lines!
Thanks,
Jeff
