That's right! It's time to go to Schlitterbahn! Every year, our 6th grade students are able to attend a field trip to the New Braunfels waterpark. Sixth grade year is arguably one of the most difficult for middle school students. They have to navigate a bigger campus, make new friends, learn how to handle more responsibility, and manage a hectic schedule. We love getting to celebrate the end a BIG year!

Frequently Asked Questions:

SVMS is not responsible for keeping up with money, debit, or credit cards. Cash can be transferred to a card at the waterpark.
