Taking advantage of an opportunity to work with a local area park ranger as well as a desire to bring some of our younger OTA students outdoors, the 8th & 4th grades are invited to enjoy an outdoor education experience at Mission Trail Regional Park next Wednesday 12/11. Our goal is to leave OTA at 9:30, arriving at the Mission Trail Visitor Center for our guided hike from 10-11:30. Both classes will then enjoy a picnic lunch in the park before returning to OTA around 1 pm. Throughout our time in Mission Trails, all students are encouraged to sketch and/or take pictures for our species scavenger hunt. Can you find and name 3 different plant, mammal, bird, insect, & reptile/amphibians? Parent drivers/chaperones are definitely needed. Please contact Mr. Major if you are interested in helping out: jmajor@otacharter.org.
