[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]6th Grade teacher here home with a sick kid.

Every 6th grader goes to an assigned art museum that the county sets up. I will say some museums are better than others. We went to the Portrait Gallery this year and saw 5-9 portraits but the docents were excellent.

In the past we have taken a big field trip to Williamsburg, Pamplin Park or Philly. We have taken a break since Covid on the big field trips due to costs -$55-90 range per kid and maximizing instructional time. Plus last year was our first year back with a lot of protocols still in place.  We did go to the high school for a musical performance and will be going to the middle school to visit before the end of the year.

Honestly, having done the big trips, the kids like being with their friends on the bus, not the actual field trip part. [/quote]

Does this include the 6the graders at Glasgow, Poe and Holmes or just those schools where 6th grade is in ES?[/quote]

Every 6th grader in FCPS goes to an art museum. In the beginning of the year we get a sheet with our assigned museum and date. So that includes those schools. [/quote]
