Special Considerations
- Students must be willing to try new experiences.
- Students must contribute to group efforts and needs.
- Cooperation, consideration of others and a helpful attitude are a must.
- The daily schedule will vary; parent flexibility is needed in regard to departure and pick-up times.
- Parents need to transport students to Metro park and ride sites.
