POLICY #6303 Field Trips (Broward Schools)

Policy 6303 FIELD TRIPS
Last amended 3.21.1995 ~ WORLD DOWN SYNDROME DAY!


There is a Policy written for just about everything! This is a good one to know if your child is going on his or her first class fieldtrip. The two portions of this policy that stand out to me are in paragraph 3 &5.


I am hearing from a few families here and there about some 'funny things' lately that have happened to their child and pertaining to our Special Ed students not always going on the class Field-Trips. So I thought it time for a Field-Trip post to my blog. This got me to go searching for yet another policy on...yup you guessed it, the Field-Trip policy!


#3 One day trips out of the Tri-County 
#5 Chaperones
(*take your cursor pointer over  any of the darker colors in my blog and click to go directly to links of the policies)


It's interesting when you know the policy..you know the rules! Did you know that at least one person designated by the principal should maybe even be a registered nurse!


Policy #6304 Special Program Trips is another good policy to read relating to 'field trips' or Special Program Trips.


Be sure to read many of your school districts POLICIES and know where to find them on your School Districts website. Reading the POLICIES of your District is just good practice to do as an 'involved parent'....it's a good habit!

Mariah's 5th Grade ~ FRIENDSHIP CARD!

Her school yearbook AD was due so it was time to create another FRIENDSHIP CARD for Mariah to hand out to her friends and for mommie to have also to hand out too! Mom picked all the pictures that showed all the different things I love to do everyday! Most of you know that I have always been up on a horse to help me with my low muscle tone and my speech skills. Mom has always believed in me and my learning how to be good at riding a horse all by myself one day....that day is here and I am learning more and more all the skills needed to be a skilled independent horse rider! My mom is so proud of me when I ride my horses!

She had to put in some of my baby pictures, because she thinks I was the prettiest baby in the entire world! See me when I was 3 months old after going to the beach for the first time! I was so happy that day to swim in Uncle Ken's swimming pool and soak up the beach breeze that day! I was still being carried around in a baby carrier!

My dance picture is one that my dad took of me in his mobile photo studio last year. I have been dancing with Dance Explosion for 6 years, starting out as you know how cute those tiny little babies are when they first start dancing? I started with Ballet, then I found I liked Hip Hop & Jazz a whole lot better! Ballet is hard work! Last year I took two dance classes, Hip Hop & Jazz and also I was in Dance Company, a bigger group of all ages and we did FUN things like doing little shows and walking & dancing in parades. My knees started giving me problems last year from certain dance moves so my mom found out I needed to get some Physical Therapy to help my knees get strong. I miss being in the dance shows on the big stage for my recitals...mom and dad would take so many pictures of me then!

Mom says I can start selling these FRIENDSHIP CARDS to my friends if they want me and my dad to make one for them. Mom wants to call  them FRIENDSHIP CARDS and knows my friends would like to have some like mine too to pass out to your friends!

Let me know if you want me to make you a custom FRIENDSHIIP CARD for you too! Email me or call me!

Have a FUN weekend!
