Our fourth graders on tracks 1 and 2 met at school at 5:30 a.m. this morning to head out to Kure Beach for a day of hands on learning. The students were so excited they barely remembered to say good bye to their parents! At 5:45 a.m. the students were loaded onto two charter buses along with the parent chaperones. I wished them all well and gave reminders to be respectful, be responsible and be safe (Banks Best!) Ms. Mueller, Ms. Halsey and Ms. Liaise did their final head counts and checks as the movie started playing. I waved and waved to the students as the buses pulled away right at 5:58 a.m. The day began two minutes ahead of schedule.
All day the teachers have sent me pictures. I promised I would blog them before they headed back to Raleigh. Check out at fourth graders at Fort Fisher, Kure Beach and the Carolina Ocean Studies program.
I will be meeting the students back at the school this evening. I can't wait to see their faces and hear all about their day of learning!
This field trip is just another example of how our students and teachers at BRES blaze the trails of learning success!
