Field Trip Request Form
Please Complete 4 weeks before the planned trip.

Off-campus school-sponsored trips are an integral part of the instructional program. Field trips, sports tournaments, and performing arts exchanges provide educational experiences beyond the school environment which support, enhance and extend classroom instruction. Besides, field experiences offer extended opportunities for students to practice self-discipline, consideration for other people, and provide an opportunity for students to apply information learned in the classroom. All students are expected to attend field trips.

1. All trips require the Principal's prior approval.
2. Advance disclosure of school-sponsored trips to students and parents is required at least one week before the trip. These disclosures should include the itinerary, emergency contact information, and cost. Overnight trips also require a list of chaperones.  Any classes or sports teams that will involve off-island travel also require written disclosure of cost and travel dates at the beginning of the class or sports season.
3. Parent/guardian signed permission must be on file for each student participating in each overnight trip. The general parent/guardian permission form signed at the beginning of the year covers single day trips.
4. Adequate adult sponsors/staff must be arranged. Volunteers acting as sponsors must be registered. (See procedure 535.) A minimum of 2 adults will be on each trip. For on-island trips, there shall be no less than one adult per 15 high school students, one adult per 10 middle school students, and one adult per 8 elementary students. For off-island trips, there shall be 1 sponsor per 10 students. Male and female adults shall be required for any overnight trip with male and female students. Exceptions may be made by the Principal.
5. Drivers of non-school vehicles carrying Morrison students on school trips must have passenger liability insurance.

On-island Travel
On-island travel shall be defined as travel within the ROC. The school is responsible for transporting participants and sponsors to regularly scheduled on-island school-sponsored events. An exception to this will be the senior trip which will be on-island and will be covered from funds raised by the class.

Spectators may ride spectator buses which have been scheduled by the school. These buses must be a self-funding operation at no cost to the school. Spectators pay on a pro-rated schedule for riding the spectator bus.
Walking trips to the surrounding community are not considered field trips and therefore do not need one week of advanced notice. Teachers should notify the office before leaving the campus with a walking group. Elementary walking groups with more than 10 students need a second adult chaperone along with the teacher. One adult in each group should carry a cell phone.

Sports teams traveling to local schools are not considered field trips and do not need one week of advanced notice.

Where would you like to go? *
What is the website for the field trip location? (either official website OR google map link) *
What is the cost of admission?  *
Do you need transportation to the field trip location? *
Do you need sack lunches for the students? *
How many students in your class? (That will be going on the field trip?) *
How many chaperones do you plan to ask to help with the field trip? While following the guidelines below, you must also cap the number of chaperones since the school will be paying for all parent volunteers that the school asks to help with the trip. Volunteers will be given a role to do during the trip, may ride school transportation, and their admission costs will be completely covered.

If you want to invite parents (beyond your volunteers) to come and participate with students, they will need to pay for their own admission and may NOT ride the bus with the class. 

(Please note: Adequate adult sponsors/staff must be arranged. Volunteers acting as sponsors must be registered. (See procedure 535.) A minimum of 2 adults will be on each trip.
