Field Trips

Field trips are good opportunities for children to learn about the world around us. We schedule field trips within our county and to nearby destinations throughout the school year. These trips are designed to supplement different aspects of the classroom curriculum and to introduce students to the resources of the community. Parents will receive notices of field trips well in advance of the scheduled trip date and will be asked to complete a field trip permission form. Money may be requested from each student to help defray transportation or facility costs. Some field trips may need a minimal number of parent chaperones, while others may not need any chaperones. NO SCHOOL FIELD TRIP CAN INCLUDE A CHILD WHO IS NOT ENROLLED AS A STUDENT BECAUSE OF LIABILITY ISSUES. Only students and school employees are allowed to ride yellow and activity buses. The cost for each field trip is calculated and set based on all students attending, therefore, money paid for field trips is non refundable. Costs will be indicated on the top of each field trip permission form.
