EMAIL DETAILS

<p>Dear Parents, </p>
<p>I hope this email finds you well. I would like to let you know that this year my foreign language colleagues and I have decided to do a "language day" for the 8th graders on Friday, May 15. It will be an opportunity for the students to go out in the DC community and meet and interact with people who speak the language they are learning and also participate in some cultural activities. </p>
<p>The French students will be going to the Alliance Francaise on Wyoming Avenue NW for an immersion activity, lesson, and snack with the instructors there. We will leave campus at 9:10 to take a metro bus to the Dupont Circle area and will then walk to the site. We will leave AF around 12 to head back to Sidwell, where all the students in French will have lunch together and a few special French treats. For more information on AF, please check out the following website:</p>

<p>In order to do this excursion off-campus, we will need some volunteers! I will need at least 1 volunteer so that we can go! Please let me know if you are willing and able to go with us on the bus to and from school. You are welcome to bring something with you while you are at AF, or you may participate in the activities! </p>
<p>Thank you for letting me know if you're available. I truly appreciate your help, and thank you for supporting our language endeavors at Sidwell!</p>
<p>Best regards,</p>
