Letter from 1st Grade Teachers about Milky Way Farms:
Dear Parents,
On Thursday, October 28 your children will participate in a virtual field trip to Milky Way Farm. Milky Way Farm is owned and run by a former Hillside Elementary School teacher and her husband. This field trip is always a favorite for our first graders. The students learn a great deal about a working dairy farm and have the opportunity to meet several different farm animals in addition to the cows. The farmers do a wonderful job of presenting the information and answering all of the children’s questions.
As many businesses have struggled during the past year and a half so has Milky Way Farm. They depend on class field trips to help support the farm. We would love to give back to the farm and let them know how much we appreciate all they do for our students and the community they serve. We will be collecting donations for the next week and plan to present Farmer Sam and Farmer Melba with the donations during our virtual field trip. If you and your child would like to participate, please send in a check made payable to Milky Way Farm or cash by Wednesday, October 20.
Thank you so much for your support!
Sincerely,
The First Grade Teachers
