FIELD TRIPS
Field trips that relate to specific units of study or provide for enrichment for the students will be arranged by the teacher in consultation with the principal. The teacher or homeroom parent will make arrangements in the event that chaperones are needed to assist with supervision. Written permission from parents or guardian is required before any student can accompany the class on a field trip. Students generally wear school uniforms unless the nature of the trip calls for another type of dress. There usually is a charge to cover transportation and entrance fees.

Field trips are privileges afforded to students; no student has an absolute right to a field trip. Students can be denied participation in the field trip if they fail to meet academic or behavioral requirements. If a student has forfeited the privilege of participating in a field trip, the student is still responsible for coming to school. Parents will be informed of their child’s loss of the field trip privilege and the reason for such action.
