Happy Friday!  Just a reminder that our first field trip will be on Monday (October 15th) and your child will need to wear his/her red "Roberts t-shirt." Please send a disposable lunch and drink with your child. The bus will be here at 8:30am (chaperones, please be here by 8:30) and we will start loading the students at 8:45am. Chaperones, we will meet back at the entrance at 1:30pm and will be back at school around 2:00pm.
