<p> 8th Grade Celebration Trip Every year the 8th grade students at Franklin School get to choose a trip to celebrate the end of the elementary years. We provide a list of options, present the information to parents and students, and then allow students to choose where they would like to go. Although the school will put in money to help fund the trip, the cost is more than the school can cover so the students participate in fundraising activities. The list of trip choices is below and fundraising activities are on the next page.</p><p>Universal Studios/2 nights (Beach visit, roller coasters, 4D rides) Ticket $110 Bus $110 Food $90 Hotel $75 $385</p><p>Disneyland/2 nights (Beach visit, fireworks, roller coasters) Ticket $100 Bus $110 Food $90 Hotel $75 $375</p><p>Knotts/2 nights (Beach visit, roller coasters) Ticket $45 Bus $110 Food $90 Hotel $75 $320</p><p>6 Flags/2 nights (Beach visit, roller coasters) Ticket $85 Bus $110 Food $90 Hotel $75 $360</p><p>Catalina Island/3 nights (snorkeling, astronomy, campfire, oceanography, kayaking) Dates are May 11-May 13, 2018 Tickets $272.09 (2 half price/1 full price chaperone) (can have up to 6 with approval and paying full price ~$255 Bus $110 Food $30 $412.09 2017-2018 8th grade timeline including fundraising opportunities Fundraising opportunities are contingent upon parent and student participation!
