7th Grade Field Trip

Dear 7th grade families,

On Friday, January 12, the seventh grade is going to the HMS Medscience program. In 7th grade science, students have been studying the human body, most recently the Respiratory System. At HMS, students problem-solve as medical diagnosticians by interacting with a lifelike robot in the medical simulation lab and performing an intubation. We’re excited about these hands-on experiences that will broaden their understanding of the human body and medical interventions.

TRIP DETAILS

• Students will miss most of their classes on Friday; they will be back on campus to eat lunch and go to their class around 1:10 p.m. 
• Beaver field trips do not involve any shopping. Your child does not need to bring any money on this trip.  
• Below is an important note from the school nurse Talia Ossowski about field trip medical information.
• We expect this to be both an educational and fun class experience and, of course, we expect everyone to be on their best behavior.

If you have any questions, please contact me. 

Ann Bevan Hollos

Associate Director of Middle School

A NOTE FROM THE NURSE

Please make sure to bring your EpiPen and inhalers with you on the field trip if you require any of these medications. These medications must be with the student at all times. Medications are not supplied by the health office for field trips.

Any non-emergency medications (anything other than the medications listed above) need to be checked by the school nurse at least 3 days in advance of the field trip. A field trip medication form must accompany the medication and be brought to the school nurse. Please contact the school nurse at [email protected] or 617-738-2739 if you have any questions.
