Good Craic

Learn how to speak English like the Irish.

The Big 2-0!

We've made it to 20 participants so watch your account for a reduction of about $150. I recommend allotting this amount of money to a "slush fund" because you will end up having some unforeseeable expenses. Don't forget you'll have to tip tour guides and bus drivers and other service industry personnel.

Remember, if you didn't make it to the meeting yesterday to come pick up your paperwork from me. That paperwork is due on or before April 15th.

Meeting Today

Hey everyone,

Don't forget that we're meeting today to get acquainted and to talk through the next steps. I have some important paperwork for you all and want to make sure we're all on the same page.

The meeting will be brief. Meet in my room, C114, right after school (let's say 2:30). I estimate that we'll be done around 3:00.

Time's Up

Registration is closed (but someone could still get in, there's just a $125 late fee).

The count is 19 students. So close, but getting to 20 just didn't quite happen. No worries, though, we'll have a grand old time. And, hey, maybe someone else will enroll and your costs will be adjusted!

I'll be putting together a final roster and assembling some paper work for you all. We will have a meeting for students only prior to spring break (and then a couple after that) and then a full students-parents-chaperones meeting sometime after spring break and then again closer to the end of the school year. Watch for e-mail and announcements on Newsbreak!

UPDATE:16 Kids and Counting

No, not that silly TLC show, our trip! We now have 16 kids 17 kids 18 kids 19 kids going and there are a few more who plan to enroll before the Wednesday deadline. I think we have a shot at getting to 20, which means that the price should drop again once we hit that bracket. Talk it up!
