Educational Field trips may be taken during the school day. Parents will be notified prior to the trip regarding where the children will be going, the times of departure,and return, and the purpose of the trip. Field trips enhance the learning and understanding of the classroom curriculum. Parents are encouraged to chaperone and attend field trips. However, some field trip venues may have a maximum number of chaperones allowed.All students and chaperones are expected to ride the bus for field trips. Donations for field trips are based on all students sharing the cost of the bus. SIBLING OF STUDENTS ARE NOT PERMITTED TO ATTEND FIELD TRIPS!
