Consisting of class field trips, many stu dents have been enabled through this program to go places, see things, and have experiences they would not normally expect through a school program. The first was a tour of con servation work in the county. This was taken part in by all fifth graders in the county-wide district. The tour was made in school buses. The balance of trips have been made by students at Heppner and Lexington, and includes all grades, one through eight. Throueh this program students who had never been on a farm were able to visit two county farms, one tour taking in Butter creek and one Rhea creek. Some who had never been a passenger on a train were taken to Hinkle by school bus, where they rode a train to Pendleton and back. Spots of interest toured in Pen dleton included the airport, a flour mill, the telephone office, a newspaper office, a tire re capping plant, and a bakery. ' Other trips were made to Me- Narv dam. to the penitentiary at Walla Walla, the fossil beds at John Day, the Condon airport and Maryhlll museum. Teachers and room mothers de cided which tours each class should take. The children were kept In their own class group, ere accompanied by their own te acher, and some of their par ents. The field trips were not com .ulsorv and arrangements were mii. to take care of those stu dents at school whose parents did not want them to make tne ip. All participating students, ados one through eight, are .ir.s the information gained In the trips In class study and most classes are requiring written re ports on the experience gained.
