2. Local and State laws prohibit bare feet. Appropriate footwear should be worn with recess and <br /> physical education in mind. <br /> 3. Appropriate clothing must be worn during cold weather in order to participate in outdoor <br /> activities and recess. <br /> From time to time, special days such as pajama day or spirit day will be held. <br /> The administration reserves the right,if necessary,to add other items to this list, <br /> especially any and all items which negatively affect the safety and security of our students <br /> and staff. <br /> The parents/guardians of a student in violation of the school dress code will be called to bring <br /> an appropriate change of clothing to school. If no one is at home, the Principal or the <br /> principal's designee will find suitable clothing to wear. <br /> FIELD TRIPS <br /> Field trips form an important part of the educational plans for the students at Mashpee Public <br /> Schools. Such trips are planned with the utmost care and parent/guardian help is sought in assuring <br /> safety at all times. Teachers insist upon good conduct and do everything they can to make the <br /> journey one of many worthwhile learning experiences. <br /> It is required that all school regulations will be adhered to on a trip and on the bus on any school- <br /> sponsored activity. <br /> Unfortunately, despite every precaution, accidents occur. In such an event, the teacher in charge and <br /> the parents/guardians serving as chaperones can be depended upon to use good judgment about <br /> getting immediate and proper care for the student. Chaperones are selected by the classroom <br /> teacher. To be a chaperone, you must be registered at the beginning of each year through the <br /> volunteer office (508-539-1550 x 175). Most often, the school cannot send many chaperones <br /> because theatres,etc. regulate the ratio of adults to children in each group. The school must abide by <br /> these regulations. <br /> Chaperones will be on public transportation with the children and not in personal vehicles. <br /> Chaperones/parents/guardians may not follow a school bus on field trips and seek to remove a <br /> child during or at the end of the trip to transport him/her in their own vehicle. Children must <br /> leave from the school and return to the school building for/from the field trip. <br /> Since field trips have become a common practice in the educational program of our community, <br /> it is important that the parent/guardian understand their responsibility in case an accident occurs <br /> and assume any financial responsibility. Neither town officials, the school administrators, <br /> teaching staff nor parents/guardians/chaperones may be liable in case of injuries or unforeseen <br /> accidents. <br /> When there is an opportunity for a field trip, parents/guardians must complete and sign a form <br /> and return it to the teacher prior to the trip. If the form is not returned, the student will not be <br /> allowed to participate in the field trip. NO PHONE PERMISSION is permitted. <br /> Field trips extend student learning and experiences. It is hoped that all students will benefit from <br /> these opportunities. However, while we believe all children should benefit from field trips, the <br /> teacher and/or administrator reserve(s) the right to withhold a child from such a trip if he/she <br /> exhibits any behavior that may present a safety issue to himself/herself or others. <br /> 16 <br />
