We received word this morning that Blair will not be able to team up with us this year for the Lake Needwood field trip. We were really looking forward to providing our students the opportunity to collaborate with their peers at our partner school, especially after so many years of not being able to!
The trip is designed specifically for the two schools to work together. Logistically, it is impossible for us to run the trip without the other school, staff and materials present. Speaking with the business office here at PHS, refunds will be issued in the near future. We are very sorry for any confusion or inconvenience this may have caused. Please feel free to email me directly (zachary_s_kingman@mcpsmd.org) if you have an questions or concerns (though I'd like to be more helpful regarding business matters, refunds, etc., they are beyond my access or control, of course).
Thank you for your understanding,
The 9th grade SMCS team

However , My child’s friend said they asked their friend who attends Blair smacs program who said they didn’t even know about this collaborative field trip. So, I thought I would ask fellow Blair smacs dcum parents if it’s true or not. Did your child have a field trip schedule for Needwood and then get cancelled?
What grade are we talking about? Is that Blair student in the same grade as your kid?
