Sibley, Iowa — The 5th and 6th graders from Sibley-Ocheyedan Middle School will be headed to Des Moines on a field trip next week, but they need your help to get there.
Sibley-Ocheyedan Middle School Social Studies Teacher Mrs. Julie Schuller says the students will be visiting the State Capitol.
A round trip to Des Moines from Sibley makes for a long day. And it’s even longer on a school bus. As a result, Mrs. Schuller says the classes are planning to take chartered busses.
Unfortunately, she says they have come up a little short for covering the cost of the second chartered bus, so they’re asking for your help.
Mrs. Schuller says her 5th and 6th graders are really looking forward to making the field trip to Des Moines.
She says she thinks one of the things the kids are most excited about is stopping on the way home to eat out. She says most of them say it will be the first time they’ve eaten in a restaurant without their parents being there.
If you’d like to chip in and help the Sibley-Ocheyedan 5th and 6th graders pay the balance of the cost of the second bus, you can contact Mr. Schuller at Sibley-Ocheyedan Middle School by calling 712-754-2542, or by email at jschuller@thegenerals.org.
Again, that trip is scheduled for next Thursday, May 13th.
