GRACE Field Trip Guidelines

• Follow the Conduct Policy.
• Field Trips are for the children, please remember to let THEM ask and answer questions.
• MOMS: Please remember to save your social time for after the tour!

What are the proper behavior guidelines for field trips? Each family sets standards of its own, but we need to have some unified standards when we are together in large numbers in public places. These are a few suggestions:

• Plan to arrive fifteen minutes before the field trip is scheduled to begin.
• Parents, pay attention to the speaker. This is courteous and sets a good example for the children to follow.
• Be attentive to your child's behavior. Children should not be allowed to behave in a way that might present a bad image of home schoolers.
• Should you see someone else's child being loud and boisterous, wandering away from the group, climbing, etc., gently persuade him or her to check with their parent right away. We need to help each other out in this regard because there are always times when our attention is diverted.
• Express your gratitude and appreciation to the owner or the person in charge of leading us through their facilities.
• Students should always be obedient.
• Stay with the group.
• Touch only when permitted. Pet or feed animals only when permitted.
• Students should stay quiet when the person conducting the tour is speaking.
• Students should raise hand if asking a question in a group.
