School-Sanctioned Events
School-Sanctioned Events
The regional FICs, in our field trip division, plan educational and social field trips weekly throughout the school year. These opportunities will be posted to the Community Section in edio. Prior to attending any event, Caretakers should complete the Blanket Waiver and Media Release form for each member of the household. This electronic form must only be completed once per school year and applies to all sanctioned events throughout the school
year. If the adult supervising the learner at a sanctioned event is not the Caretaker, they must provide the family involvement coordinator or school event representative with a signed, written note from the Caretaker confirming that the designated adult has permission to supervise the learner at the sanctioned event.
Attendance at sanctioned events will be recorded by the FIC. Any schoolwork scheduled on an “event” day must be completed, although it does not have to be completed on the event day.
Note: There may be additional fees charged to attend these activities, as permitted by state law.
Learners Driving to Sanctioned Events (and State Testing)
First and foremost, we highly recommend to parents/legal guardians that learners not be permitted to drive unaccompanied to state testing. Preferred options include having parents, legal guardians or designated adults drive and supervise learners, or having learners use public transportation.
Note: Students are not permitted to attend field trips without a legal guardian or designated adult.
