Field Trip Information/Forms

Field trips are an important part of the instructional program. Parents will be notified in advance and must

sign a permission form. The signed permission form must be on file the day of the trip for the student to be eligible to attend. Permission given over the phone is not permitted. We must have the parent signature on the trip form before a student will be permitted to leave the campus.

Students must travel to and from the event in school-sponsored vehicles. Only an administrator or the sponsoring teacher can make an exception to this. Exceptions must be requested in advance or made in the event of an emergency.

All adults who accompany a field trip must read, sign, and submit the LCS Chaperone

Application/Criminal Background History forms annually. (See Chaperone Guidelines) This paperwork

must be filed at least one week in advance of the field trip. It is expected that all chaperones dress

appropriately, provide assistance to the teachers, and follow the teacher’s instructions carefully. In an effort to keep focus on the children in the class, siblings and guests are not permitted on school trips unless they have been specifically invited by the sponsoring teacher.
