At the IMSA Fusion parent information meeting earlier this year I mentioned the possibility of our program taking a field trip to the IMSA campus for a Science and Math Inquiry Workshop. This has become a reality and we have been invited for a November 13th trip to IMSA! This will be an all day field trip, and we will provide a schedule as we get closer. At the meeting I also mentioned a potential fee that we would ask from parents to help offset the cost of the trip. I am writing now to ask for your help with ensuring that we send our students on an amazing opportunity. The total cost is looking to be around $1,100 dollars. This cost would include 2 buses, 2 drivers and mileage charged by the bus company. I am asking for a donation of $10 per student, to cut down the costs. If you can give more that would be wonderful. Please make checks payable to your respective school and submit the fee to your child's Fusion teacher. Please feel free to contact me if you have questions at (309)-973-2282 or at nyoung@galesburg205.org.
Sincerely,
