Anatomy and Physiology Field Trip

On April 21st, the senior class, and the juniors that take anatomy and physiology will be taking a field trip to Atlanta, Ga.  We will go to the Atlantic Center to see the Bodies in Motion and Extreme Dinosaurs exhibits.  We are chartering a bus and will eat in the food court of the Atlantic Center.  The cost is $60 per student.  I have a list of students that paid to go to The Great Gatsby play that was canceled.  We will use the money the students have already paid to the school and the students will be responsible for the difference.  The money will be due March 31st.  I will inform each student of the money they will owe on Friday.  Each student received a permission form and information letter today.  Thanks!
