SUBJECT / RECOMMENDATIONS
Request Approval of the Activities Calendar for Secondary Education Field Trips - 2014/2015
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Secondary Mathematics, Music, Science, and World Languages programs schedule field trips for students to participate in academic competitions and activities to enhance student learning.  The Secondary Education Field Trip Calendar will enable Area Leadership Directors and school administrators to determine in advance which activities have been deemed academically relevant by subject area supervisors.  Since the competitions and activities can be out-of-county, pre-approval will assist in advance planning for these events.
STRATEGIC OBJECTIVES
• Motivate students to become responsible learners
FINANCIAL IMPACT (Budgeted:  Yes)
Activities will be supported by internal accounts, grants, and district budget.
EVALUATION
Activities will be evaluated by the appropriate content supervisor based on the number of students participating and the impact on student achievement.
