Field trips are one of the highlights of any school year. Class outings to museums, zoos, parks, or other destinations can create lifelong memories for children, but high anxiety for the adults who organize them.
FLBusCharters.com provides transportation for class outings throughout the school year. So we’ve learned a thing or two about keeping children safe while they travel away from school for a day or even an overnight trip. Here are some helpful tips to make your next field trip safer.
Involve Parents
The most important way to keep kids safe on field trips is to have enough adult supervision. Teachers and school administrators alone aren’t enough. To make your next field trip successful, it’s important to get the involvement of parents. Ask for enough volunteers so that there is at least one adult for every ten kids.
Create and distribute rosters ahead of time so each adult knows which group of children they are responsible for supervising. Encourage trip chaperones to take attendance prior to getting on the bus and every time children get on or off the vehicle.
It’s also important that schools get permission from parents for their children to go on the field trip. Permission slips need to be sent home, signed by a parent and returned to school before any child can participate in the field trip.
