Student Responsibilities

Student Responsibilities:

The two-day Camp Minikani experience is a school activity.  During this time, students are under the jurisdiction of the school and are to respect the authority of all Webster staff and Minikani staff members.

To make this an enjoyable and successful educational experience, we expect the students to bring a positive attitude and follow these guidelines:

• 1. PBIS ROAR (Responsible, On Task, Accountable & Respectful) behavior expected. 

  2. All students must be in their assigned areas at the designated times and follow the scheduled events.

  3. Students will only be allowed in their assigned stations/facilities.

  4. Students must stay away from all wet areas such as the bog and lakes unless accompanied by an adult, or in a canoe.   As a matter of student safety, any student who tips a canoe which results in students falling into the lake will be sent home from Camp for the duration of the school day. 

  5. It is important that each person respects and protects the outdoor environment and Camp resources.  Please deposit your trash in designated locations. Please keep all canoes upright.

  6. Any snack must be nut- and tree-nut free.

  7. Drinks will be provided during camp, so do not bring soda or sugary drinks.  We suggest an environmentally friendly reusable/refillable water bottle or bottled water to drink during the day.  

  8. Students will be cooperative with others in creating a healthy, enjoyable learning situation.

  9. It is expected that students wear their wrist band at all times.

With this number in attendance, it is critical that each person maintains self-discipline.  If any child cannot exercise self-control, the administration will have no other alternative than to send the child home or have him/her attend regular classes at Webster for the duration of the outdoor education session.  

Table Hopping at Mealtime:

During the two days at camp, most campers will serve as hoppers during mealtime at some point. In order to serve meals on time and in an orderly manner, hoppers must follow these instructions:

• 1. Report to the dining hall 5-10 minutes prior to mealtime for instructions. If with a class, inform your teacher as to why you are leaving early.  Wash hands!

  2. Set a pitcher as well as a drink cup for each of the group members.

  3. Clear the table of dishes, wash the table and stack the chairs.

  4. Check with the school administration or teacher for inspection before leaving for the next class or activity.
