Educational Trips

Field trips relate to the instructional program. Each student participating in any field trip must submit a field trip permission form to the school. This form is established by the diocese and must be signed by the parent/guardian.  No student may participate unless a signed field trip participation form, for the specific event, is on file with the principal.

The permission form is to be submitted to the teacher at least one school day before the scheduled trip. Parents may be asked to provide part or all of the cost involved. When possible bus transportation will be provided.  Any person volunteering to provide adequate passenger transportation must submit a signed volunteer driver information sheet to the principal for each vehicle used.

Participation in field trips is a privilege. Students may be denied participation if they fail to meet academic or behavioral requirements of the school. Students who do not participate in the field trips will be provided alternative assignments during the field trip.

Each driver and/or chaperone will be given a copy of the approved itinerary, including the routes to be followed, and a summary of their responsibility.

All students are to ride the bus (if busing is provided) to and from the field trip. No student is permitted to leave a field trip with a parent or guardian.
