FIELD TRIPS

The Board of Education recognizes the desirability of providing off-campus experiences which will enhance the educational program of the school system. The building principal will determine the frequency and content of class field trips. Each student must secure the permission of his/her parent or guardian before participating in such activity.

Factors relevant in consideration of approval of such field trips may include the relationship to the curriculum, the distance of the trip, availability of transportation, the cost involved and weather conditions. In order to make necessary transportation arrangements, all requests for field trips must be submitted to the appropriate building principal at least 12 school days prior to the trip date.

All field trip transportation will be arranged by the transportation office.
