Please note that participation in this trip is a privilege, not a right. As such, students are expected to demonstrate appropriate behavior both in and out of the classroom leading up to the trip. Continued good behavior is essential to ensure the safety and enjoyment of all students during our time in New York City.

Inappropriate behavior or repeated disciplinary issues may result in a student losing the privilege to attend the trip. We encourage students to remain focused, responsible, and respectful in the weeks leading up to this exciting event.

We will send more details about departure and arrival times, packing lists, and other important information as the trip approaches. In the meantime, please feel free to reach out with any questions or concerns.

We are thrilled to offer this opportunity for our Grade 8 students to experience the energy and culture of New York City while learning beyond the classroom.

Thank you,
Dr. Golding
