Field Trips

Fieldtrips are extensions of the learning experience. They follow learning objectives and curriculum standards. There will be follow up activities and lessons that directly relate to field trips. Therefore, all students are to take part in field trip opportunities.

Parental permission is required for participation in field trips. Teachers will send notices of field trips home to parents prior to each field trip. We will use school transportation vehicles, if feasible. During a field trip, the teacher has sole authority regarding the enforcement of all rules. Dress will be appropriate to the occasion and in good taste. The teacher may make the judgment that an infraction calls for the immediate return of a student to his/her home. The student's parents will pay for the immediate expense of his/her return.

The school reserves the right to prevent a child from going on a field trip if there is a concern about the child’s ability to conduct themselves to the high standard expected of Hayat students, or if it is believed that they might endanger themselves or other children by taking part on that trip.
