2023-2024 UE 4-6 Field Trips

UE 5 students and teachers are bused to iSpace for a day of fun!
iMISSIONs are educational simulations used as dynamic models of workplace activity allowing students to face authentic conditions and problem-solve just as their professional counterparts must. Students apply for their position based on their interests and skills, and perform tasks simulating experiments related to their assigned job. Students are immersed into the role of scientist/astronaut where they must rely on their fellow crew members to ensure the success of the mission. Depending on their position, students may be tasked with operating a robotic arm, conducting experiments in a glove box, facilitating mission timeline activities, recording and transferring data, navigating, and much more!
Students will attend last bell.
Cost: $25 per student (includes transportation)

What: UE 5 Children's Theatre: NARNIA The Musical Attending this performance provides an enriching experience for our UE students. In UE 4, students read the first in The Chronicles of Narnia series – The Magician’s Nephew – and we continue in UE 5 with reading the second in the series – The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe. Based on C.S. Lewis’ The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe Narnia The Musical tells of four English schoolchildren – brothers and sisters – sent away from London during World War II to stay in the manor house of their uncle – who stumble upon (and through) a wardrobe into the magical kingdom of Narnia, held in the power of the White Witch, whose evil spell has frozen the land, so that it is “always winter – and never Christmas.” In this spellbound landscape, filled with creatures of myth and fable, the children face temptation and fear, but learn deep lessons of courage, unselfishness, and wisdom that help them grow in spirit and prepare them for life in our world. Narnia The Musical wants to sing, and from the excitement of the opening number “Doors and Windows”, to the poetry of “Narnia (You Can’t Imagine),” to the stirring “To Make the World Right Again,” your spirits will soar with all those in this enchanted land.
