Field Trip Reminders

If you plan to meet us at Regenstein Library at 8:25 am, instead of coming with us from the school, your parent should email your teacher no later than 10 pm on Sunday.  Don't be late. If you plan to walk over from Lab, please meet Ms. Gerst and Mr. Janus in the lobby entrance (next to the security desk and the wooden benches) at 8:00 am.  We will leave at 8:10 am, according to the time on our iPhones.  We will travel to the Art Institute via the Metra. Please bring your student ID and fare money (say $2).  You should either bring a lunch or money to buy lunch, recognizing that lunch is fairly expensive at the Art Institute.  Once we enter the Art Institute, you may NOT leave the building. If your parent is ok with you not coming back to school via the 2 pm Metra train (because for instance you live downtown), then your parent should email your teacher no later than 10 pm on Sunday.  If you have an 8th period class with Ms. Gerst, you may come to class to conduct catena essay research in the library, discuss your essay topic or research with me, and/or discuss the Art Institute trip. If you are not coming back to school, you need to have your parent email me no later than 10 pm.  Finally, please wear a winter coat, hat and gloves; the weather has not been great, and we are reaching the end of the quarter, and you don't really need a case of strep throat, the flu, or bronchitis to sideline you.   We will be walking tons with stairs, so heels aren't a good idea either.  Best, CG
