Chaperone Duties and Student expectations:

Supervision in the Hotel
General expectations
Extenuating Circumstances
There is always the possibility of the unexpected happening. If you have health issues of any kind that could require special assistance while on the trip, you need to communicate these matters to Mrs. Bassett. You need to have a plan in place for how this should be dealt with in a way that makes it possible for Mrs. Bassett to remain in charge of the entire group. There are 51 people travelling with this group and additional parents who plan to drive down and experience this with us. In addition to communicating any issues with Mrs. Bassett, your chaperone also needs this information in advance.
For those who need to keep their medications with them, this is fine. It is expected that students understand fully how to take care of their own needs in such a way that will not abuse any of the medications they will have on their person.
Please be proactive in planning for this trip. With special needs of any kind, plans need to be made in advance. Hopefully, nothing will go “wrong”, but leading a group this LARGE is a tremendous responsibility. It is important that this is considered when planning ahead to ensure the needs of one and the needs of the rest of the group are all met in a satisfactory manner. Thank you for your help in making the trip the best it can be!
- Using the cell phone directory provided in the CHAPERONE GROUP LISTS, chaperones and students will save the cell phone numbers of their group in their phone, along with any other important numbers they will need while on the trip.
- Students will check in with their chaperone every hour (on the hour) through text or face-to-face depending on the circumstances. The first time a student forgets to check in with a chaperone, they will receive a warning. The next time a student fails to check in with their chaperone, they will remain with their chaperone in the parks for the remainder of the trip.
- Students must be in groups of 3 or more while in the parks or in the hotel.
- Students may use their park hopper passes to move to another park if they have parent permission, but they should not spend a lot of time moving between parks, or they will lose valuable time in the parks. They should plan ahead and make their time count in each park. When moving from park to park, students must also notify their chaperone. They should contact their chaperone to notify them they are moving to another park and then they should contact their chaperone to let them know they arrived safely in the other park.
Supervision in the Hotel
- Students should never be completely alone in the hotel or anywhere on the trip.
- Students should not visit a hotel room of the opposite gender or someone they are romantically involved with at any time during the trip.
- Students found in a “compromising” situation will be dealt with when we return to school grounds. SCHOOL RULES APPLY WHILE ON A FIELD TRIP. Students, please make good decisions. Do not create a situation that requires intervention and takes away from the experience that everyone else expects to enjoy. Your decisions impact others, both in good and bad ways. Make good choices and the trip will be a success for everyone involved.
- Students are expected to treat chaperones and any adult with respect.
General expectations
- Think before you act. Make good choices.
- Look out for each other. Be kind, helpful and respectful.
- Don’t be late. Plan ahead.
- LISTEN TO INSTRUCTIONS, so that you know WHERE to be and WHEN to be there.
