Trip should be scheduled around April and the buses need to be reserved when school starts. The Thursday of the week of spring parent/teacher conferences worked well. Thursday is good for meeting a state representative, since they are normally out of town on Fridays.

Create a phone list and provide the trip plan for all chaperones.


HRP's to send note to classrooms with the following details:
1. Spending money is at parent's discretion.
2. No cell phones; There will be plenty of adults with phones for emergency use.
3. No pillows for the ride on the bus.
4. Two bottles of water per child will be provided. One snack for the way home is provided (by the school).
5. Girls can wear athletic shoes instead of school shoes because of all the walking (but NOT Dockers topsiders)
6. They all must wear their uniforms

Trip Recap


The day went well.  Buses left a little late, but they all were loaded up with donut holes and water.  It was the first time that we went to the Mayborn and we've received good reviews about the facility and the attentive staff.  The Dr Pepper is always a hit with the kids but at this point we don't recommend going back next year due to the issues with checkout at the gift shop.   It took too long and delayed field trip.  Based on the size of the facility, the Mayborn can handle the whole class in one stop and could even be the lunch spot.  Hopefully, by only having one stop in Waco, we can get to Austin in a timely manner.  New this year was also the Bob Bullock museum and the feedback was that the IMAX was great but the museum was boring.
