Field Trip Request Form

The paperwork involved in taking a field trip just got easier.

I have added a Field Trip Request Form to the other downloadable documents. Once you have used this once, you won't go back to the pencil and paper method. Here is what you need to know:

To this point, when you have taken a field trip, you have generated four documents:

1. Field Trip Transportation Report Form (where you request the bus)
2. Field Trip Request Form (where you show how your trip relates to the curriculum)
3. Leave Request (where you request professional leave to take the field trip)
4. Field Trip Parental Permission Form (the permission form you duplicate and send home with the student)

As of yesterday, the "Field Trip Request Form" no longer exists. You will no longer have to turn it in. That brings the number of forms down to three.

Downloadable Field Trip Form

1. You will notice that when you download this document, all three forms you need are there, one right after the other.
2. The second thing to notice is that the document was created as a Microsoft Word "form," which means it's only going to let you type in the gray blanks.
3. You will move from one blank to the next by simply hitting "Tab."
4. Now for the best part: As you fill in information on the first page, that information is automatically entered anywhere else it is needed. You will have very little to enter on the other two forms. Hit "Print" and all three pages come out.

You can always get to this form by going to the Downloadable Documents. You can also download the form and save it to you computer if you wish.
