Field Trips

The Rock Lady

Hello All,

Next week we will be having a Gemologist come to Gold Rush and teach 3rd graders about rocks and minerals. She will teach the students how to identify and classify gems in their unpolished state. The kids will each be able to take home all the gems they find. The cost per student is $8.00. Please make checks out to “Gold Rush Elementary” and send them in with your child by Tuesday, December 10th. We also need 1-2 parent volunteers per class to assist the kids and help clean up.

Below are the dates and times for each class:

            Wednesday the 11th

                        10:30-11:30  Hayes
                        1:00-2:00       Castro
                        2:30-3:30       Shepperd

            Thursday the 12th

                        1:00-2:00       Nelson
                        2:30-3:30       Cieply


Thank you from your 3rd grade team!
