An important part of the curriculum is for students to be exposed to performances, people, and sights in other locations. As part of the information you receive in this handbook, you will be asked to sign a field trip permission form for trips to other school sites and Yavapai College throughout the year. If a
field trip is taken to a non-school site, a special permission form will be sent home for that trip. Your child may not participate in field trips without the signed permission forms.

Often teachers will ask parents to volunteer to chaperone field trips. Parent participation is encouraged as space allows. The following important rules apply to field trips.

• Students must ride to and from the trip on the bus (not in parents' vehicles). Exceptions can onlybe made by the field trip supervisor and only for the return trip. Parents must make the request in writing and students may only return with their own parents.
• Parents chaperoning or attending field trips may not bring other children. Other adult family members (such as grandparents) may only attend with the permission of the field trip supervisor.
• Students remain under the authority of the field trip supervisor(s) at all times. Parents who chaperone are also expected to comply with the direction of the supervisor(s).
