I am excited to announce our last field trip of the year! We have been discussing agriculture in our current social studies unit, and next Tuesday, we have a unique opportunity to go back in time by visiting a farm that has been around since the 1830s. Victory Acres Farm is an incredible little working farm right here in the heart of Upland owned by a local family that works to provide organic food to people in town. They have generously offered to host us for the day and give us a tour of their farm---everything from indoor greenhouses to a whole barn full of farm animals!
Schedules and permission slips were sent out today. Please have the permission slips (and parent volunteer forms) back to me by Friday so that your student can participate in what is sure to be a fun day!

Remember, permission slips are due by Friday. As always, feel free to contact me if you have any questions or concerns!
