LIVE OAK ADVENTURE
For anyone new to Eanes, Live Oak is the District's environmental classroom program offered to every fifth grade student. We are excited about Live Oak and hope to generate the same enthusiasm among our students and parents.
All fifth grade students at Bridge Point will be attending Live Oak together. Live Oak Adventure will last two and one-half days and will be October 20-22 Wednesday- Friday. We will be going to the Highland Lakes Camp on Lake Travis.
The fee for participation this year is $$$$$. Please make the check out to Bridge Point Elementary. Scholarships (partial or full) are available for students that need them so that every fifth grader can participate in this exciting program. Please contact the counseling office if you need more information about a scholarship. Homeroom teachers will collect all fees and forms.
For those of you, who will be participating in our Mini Courses, there will be a prepaid $7.00 charge for lunch. Please send cash for the lunch. Thank you for helping to make LOA 2016 a successful experience for your child.
