Sarah Smith Elementary School
Field Trip PERMISSION FORM, 2017-2018

The 5th Grade Teachers have developed an exciting, curriculum-linked field trip program!
A SIGNED PERMISSION FORM IS REQUIRED FOR YOUR CHILD TO PARTICIPATE. One permission form will serve for the duration of the academic year. Please detach the signature portion, sign, and return it to your teacher by Friday, August 25, 2017. Keep the top portion for your records. More details about each trip will be sent home about 3 days before each trip.
Parent and/or Teacher Chaperones will be on hand to assist the students for off-site trips and for HTHT. For those interested in chaperoning, a sign- up sheet was available at Orientation/Open House. A lottery system will be used by the room parents to assign the final list. You may also indicate interest on the permission form, but this will only be used to fill-in blank spots.

For additional safety, we ask that each child wear a Sarah Smith Field Trip t-shirt during these outings.
