Hope you guys are having a fabulous time in DC!
ReplyDeleteIt's a trip you'll remember the rest of your lives! Be safe!
Hi everyone! It's the 7th grade CAPS class! We're working hard in class. Wish you were here ... and we were there! Enjoy! Ms. A, Drew, Corey, Austin, Aaron, Jon, Caleb, Justin, Kyle, Connor, Samantha, Mrs. Minix, and Christine, too!!
ReplyDeleteWe are all busy doing school work at Liberty. We wish we were there .
ReplyDeletecome home safe. HAVE FUN! Emma, Dustin, & Ashlee keep in touch with your moms! Mrs. Allender & Mrs. McQuarters
i have an impromptu science experiment you can do while in D.C. This will also be relevant since this will be the experiment that we will do when you return to school. Somebody could go to the top of the Washington Monument and drop two items at the same time and see which item hits the ground first(suggested items- your history assignment and your language arts assignment).I am sorry i said that Mr. Lee and Mrs.Hershman.
ReplyDeleteHope you are all having a great time and learning a lot. Eat lots of good food, (I like fried foods), behave, and just have a wonderful time. I am looking forward to reading more about your trip tomorrow.. Forget about resting because I know I would just be too excited to sleep. I miss some of you here. See you when you return.
ReplyDeleteMrs. Archer
Have a great time and also learn about our great country. I'm looking forward to the pictures and the reports. Central office wishes you the best. Mr. Gangloff
ReplyDeleteHey Haley and Jordann everybody misses u here! Hope you guys have a good time!! P.S. Mamaws making monkey bread!! HAHA!!!!!! Sid and mams!!
ReplyDeleteGood news! We survived a day at school without all of you, but you were, of course, missed. Instead of that science experiment--which might be a security risk--why not do a Random Act of Kindness instead? Your school counselor would be proud, and it would again demonstrate that NJSP Middle School is SIMPLY THE BEST!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy! Mrs. Matzat
Hope you all enjoyed your first day! Have a wonderful time and remember your families miss you, give them a call sometime.
ReplyDeleteHave a great time and enjoy yourselves. This is a chance of a lifetime. I wish I could be there with you. Think of us,but not too much as we want you to have a wonderful experience. Be safe and we look forward to a report when all of you return. Mrs. S.
ReplyDeleteHey Georgie, Try not to set off any more security alarms. Love, Mom and Grandma

ReplyDeleteMrs. Rowe
Just wondering, is Mr. Ransom behaving? Remember kids to keep an eye on him, don't lose him. Enjoy the rest of your trip. Isn't HISTORY great!!! Also, remember to watch where you step in the White House. Bo Obama is probably not house trained yet. Mr. Lee

ReplyDeleteHow lucky you are to go on suck a wonderful trip! I KNOW all of you are having a GREAT time!
Love,
Mom
Here we are back at school on Monday. What a trip! We experienced so many things that I know I would have never done without this trip. I have been around a while compared to the students I traveled with and I learned a lot that I didn't know before. It is really hard for me to pick a favorite site or event from the trip. Arlington Cemetery does stand out quite a bit in my mind. It was really neat to be right there in the middle of so much of our country's history. I really had a great time and the kids did a good job representing our school. My group, the DC Dazzlers, were pretty special and can check in with me any time. They were a little sad when we grouped together for the last time before leaving DC. I will say there is one experience that is not a good thing for me. Sleeping on a bus seems to be impossible for me. It is good to be back, caught up with family (especially Axel) and share all of our great experiences with everyone. Thanks to Mrs. Zupin for this memorable life experience. K. Medesi
ReplyDeleteHey you guys. This is hayley proctor. & washington d.c was amazingly awesome!. Even with my messed up knee. To the future trips enjoy it while you can! because it definitely went by fast for us, BUT REMEMBER, you may not want to eat in another food court for the REST OF YOUR LIFE. When you do get the chance to go to washington d.c make sure you check out the arlington cemetery and Mount Vernon. You will be very very, impressed and you will love it for life! Just like me. oh and McKenzie Sallee and Jordann Frasure are sitting here with me in CAPS class and we are enjoying all the comments. So send in more for us to read! & yes, all three of us went there.
ReplyDeleteLooked like great memories. Have fun and get out your notes.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Hayley Proctor the trip was amazing. I thought that it was worth the money. We seen so many things in such a short time. The trip went by so fast and I want to go back. If I could go back I would want to go see Mt. Vernon, Arlington Cemetary, The National Mall, and the Lincoln Monument again. We learned a lot and had a lot fun, but we all got tired of food court food after a while. If you ever get a chance to go make sure you go and try to see as much as you can.
ReplyDeletemrs medesi was a great chaperone to have she was soo great! we had lots of fun on the trip it was amazing.... i think im gnna go again next year! this has created memories tht will nvr fade. everything was fun.. food courts is one thing i wont b at any time soon!!! thts for sure... but, otherwise i had a great time, and sum pretty hilarous moments in the hotel.. like amp coming out of my nose thx to andi ahah
ReplyDeletei think everyone shld have a chance to go to DC once in their life bcuz, of all the history u learn and u also make new friends on the trip!
it was pretty sad wen we left.. but, it was great to come bck and share the memories with family and friends!
