(For Students in 4th & 5th Grade)

Dear Parents,

YES Club will be starting this Wednesday after school from 3:00 - 5:00 in the Panther Den. We have a few more slots for kids that are interested. YES Club is a science club sponsored by the Catamount Institute. This semester we will be studying Fire Ecology. We will take field trips to burn zones, visit a hot shot crew, work on fire mitigation, and lots of other hands on activities. We end the semester with a science symposium at Colorado College. The cost is $115 for the semester. We do have some scholarships available. Please look at the attached flyer and the registration online at the bottom of the flyer (image below). Feel free to email me with any questions you may have.

You will need to eat lunch before you come, but there will be short breaks when you could eat a non-messy snack (bring it with you if you want one.)

Earlier I had scheduled a 1:00 help session for those having trouble with the Lincoln system, but that day the help session will be held at 10:00 am. If you attend the help session, you may use any remaining time to work on your schoolwork. Bring your lunch to eat in my room (707), and I'll take you from there to the MAPs test.

If you are in 11th or 12th grade, or if you already took the test this fall, you do not need to attend.
