Ski Trip Forms Sent Home

There are two waivers to sign and return that students have.  All the details are located on the first letter to parents (and is attached below).  Cost of the trip is $30.00 but we can set up payment plans in order for all interested to attend.  Tickets on our Valentine basket are also available from all students for two dollars only.  All funds raised will help to pay for our transportation.  I can't wait to hit the slopes!

Both waivers and fees are due by February, 19th.
