College Trip
We have a college trip on Tuesday the 18th of October. You will need a permission slip to get on the bus. There is one attached here that you can print out, or you can have your parents sign a seperate piece of paper with the same information. If the slip looks questionable I will call your parents to verify! Also, make sure you call your school (or your parents call)!
The attachment is not working - so I need your parents signature and phone number saying it is ok for you to go on the college trip on the 18th!
Be at Centro Campesino at 8:45 sharp!
Faribault students be at El Tequila in Faribault at 9:20 sharp!
Faribault students will arrive back around 3, and Owatonna students will arrive back around 3:30pm.
