FIELD TRIPS
Field trips are considered to be an extension of classroom learning. You will be notified in advance of the date a trip will be taken, the cost of the trip, and the deadline for payment. Often, the deadline is several weeks before the actual date of the trip. For most events, reservations and payments are necessary to ensure seats. Payments are to be made by the deadline date. Refunds cannot be given after arrangements and reservations have been made.
Things to Remember About Field Trips
- The permission form and money must be sent in by the deadline date.
- Calls home on the day of the trip are not permitted.
- A permission slip signed by a parent or guardian is required for all field trips.
- Send the permission form and money together.
- You should keep the top portion of the permission form so you will know the date of the field trip and what your child needs for the trip [sack lunch, drinks, etc.].
- Field trip money MUST be sent separately from all other monies.
- When writing a check, make it payable to Daphne East Elementary School.
- Brothers and sisters CANNOT accompany a sibling on a trip.
- Once bus arrangements and reservations have been made, refunds cannot be given.
Access Restrictions per Baldwin County Board of Education Board Policy are also in effect during field trips.
ACCESS RESTRICTIONS - BOARD POLICY 4.1.2
The Superintendent, principals, and facility administrators are authorized to regulate and restrict access to Board schools, buildings, and facilities in order to maintain appropriate security, minimize disruption and distraction within the learning environment, or to avoid a potential risk of harm to a student or employee. To that end, the Superintendent, principals, and facility administrators are authorized to implement building-level requirements and procedures governing access to Board owned or controlled buildings, grounds, property, events, and activities by school and non-school personnel, including family members and relatives, vendors, attorneys, and other visitors, and to adopt “check-in” and “check-out” requirements and procedures for students and employees.
