Greeting House C Learners and Families!
Here we are on the eve of our trip to show Mt. Mansfield what House C is made of. To ensure a successful day for all full of challenge, collaboration, and celebration, please prepare in the following ways:
- Get a good night’s sleep. You need lots of energy for this hike.
- Eat a hearty breakfast. (see above for reason why)
- Pack the following:
- Water - 32 oz (one liter) minimum
- Proper footwear - sturdy, closed-toed shoes/boots, socks
- Clothing layers - t-shirt, long-sleeved shirt, light jacket, light pants, shorts
- Lunch and snacks
- Sunscreen
- Backpack - it should only contain this list of items. As much as you’d love to do your humanities practice on the hike, please leave all non-hike materials at school/home.
- As of 9/15, the forecast for our trip is sunny, high of 79°F/low of 58°F with 0% chance of precipitation. This is warm weather for hiking, but you’ll notice the temperature drop as you ascend. Dress accordingly.
Please review the expectations as we discussed in class:
- No one hikes alone
- No one passes the lead adult for your group
- No one gets left behind
- If you need help, stop and wait for an adult
- Leave no trace
- Stay on the trail
- School rules and expectations apply
Remember, this trip is about both pushing yourself as an individual and about reaching out to others to help improve everyone’s experience of this trip. Let this make you and House C stronger.
Thank you for taking time to review this information. We look forward to see you all on the trail!
House C
