6th graders have an excursion planned for nearly every Wednesday in September. The excursions are marked on the 6th Grade Calendar (also on this webpage), but I wanted to give you a little more information about our plans.
September 10th
We will be walking to Sprout City Farm and hopefully EKAR farm, as well.
September 17th
We will be biking or taking the RTD to Moondog Farm and Blue Bear Farm. We will be investigating how urban farms in Denver use different irrigation techniques. We'll need 8 chaperones for this field trip, so email Ms. Mundt if you are interested in chaperoning. We need cycling chaperones and chaperones who are willing to take the RTD with their group. Below are the links for the biking directions for Moondog and Blue Bear.

6th Grade camping trip to Rocky Mountain National Park!
We'll be sending home packing lists in the next week, but you can always look here for information as well. We'll need approximately 8-10 chaperones for this overnight excursion as well, so if you can join us, we'd love to have you with us. Email Ms. Mundt at [email protected] if you are able to chaperone.
October 1st
We're going on another biking excursion to Cherry Creek Farmers' Market, Whole Foods, and Safeway to compare origin and food prices for ingredients that the students will be using to create their Harvest Festival recipes. We'll need 8 chaperones for this field trip, so email Ms. Mundt if you are interested in chaperoning. We need cycling chaperones and chaperones who are willing to take the RTD with their group.
