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.
- A permission slip signed by a parent or guardian is required for all field trips.
- Field trip money MUST be paid on My School Bucks.
- 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.
