CBA Permission Slip – Grade 4 Field Trip to Patriots Point – May 2025

Dear parents of 4th grade students,

Your child’s class is going on a field study trip! This is an excellent chance to further your child’s learning outside of the classroom.
 

On Thursday, May 1, the 4th grade class will visit the Patriots Point Naval and Maritime Museum.  

Visiting Patriots Point will serve as a summative learning experience of some major events for fourth grade’s final learning units, including World War II, the Korean War, and Vietnam War. This field trip will give our students a more practical and hands-on experience of these times in American history when great leaders had to make tough, wise decisions and men and women had to sacrifice bravely and serve honorably. Students will see the advancements in technology and the changes in American society as well in these exhibits, especially with the guiding commentary from Colonel Ferguson, Miss Ferguson’s dad and former history teacher, who will help lead the tour.

 

Details:

  • Cost: The cost of this field trip has been donated to the 4th grade classes!
