Eighth graders will have the opportunity to take a field trip to Cedar Point on Friday, June 2nd. This year’s spring extravaganza allows eligible students to spend a fun-filled day at America’s world-famous “Amazement Park!"

Staff chaperones and students will rendezvous throughout the day in order to (1) check on health and safety and (2) allow students to change from group to group, if they wish. Students are on their own and are instructed to be with their friends – either in pairs or groups – and will be enjoying the park. Should any concerns arise, parents will be notified. Students who cannot attend or do not qualify for the incentive trip will be provided with alternative assignments back at school on the day of the trip. Students who need financial assistance can inquire in the AMS Main Office.

Event Tickets: Students will be receiving their purchased, discounted tickets to enter the park when they arrive at Cedar Point.  

Season Passes: Students need to bring their season passes, as the passes are their only means to enter the park.

Due to Cedar Point's new policy on cashless purchases, your child will need a cashless payment option (credit card/Visa gift card/etc.) to purchase food or merchandise.  Or, students may upload cash onto a prepaid card upon arrival.  Students are responsible for all of their personal belongings while at the park.
