Red Storm Forecast Stonybrook IA/MS

Week of: September 23rd

Message from Mr. Smith

Dear Stonybrook Families,

Our 8th grade Scholars will be attending a field trip to JobSparks on Sept. 25, 2019. This will be a wonderful learning experience for our scholars as they learn more about varying career options. Scholars will engage in career related hands-on learning experiences during this educational field trip. In order to keep our student groups small during this experience, we will need many volunteers.

Parents/Guardians, we need you! We are asking you to volunteer to chaperone our scholars during their upcoming JobSparks field trip. Please consider giving our 8th gr. scholars 4 hours of your time on 9/25. The experience is rewarding! Again, we need you! Please stop in to our front office to complete the form you will need to volunteer to chaperone from 10:30 - 2:30 for the field trip. Please note that a complete background check must be on file at the front office to chaperone.

Jason Smith, Principal
