FENWICK HIGH SCHOOL STUDENT CONDUCT POLICY FOR OVERNIGHT/EXTENDED TRIPS The following policies have been established to insure that every student who participates in an organized trip supervised by Fenwick personnel will benefit from the experience and will be safe throughout the trip. This trip is a co-curricular activity like many under the auspices of Fenwick High School. Each student is expected to behave in the same manner he/she would at any school activity. The underlying reason for any activity in which our students are engaged is to enhance their educational and spiritual experience. No student shall be permitted to partake in any off-campus overnight/extended trip unless he/she and his/her parent or guardian have read together the following policies and have signed that the student will comply with these provisions. 1. The students will understand that they represent Fenwick High School at all times and will not conduct themselves in a manner that reflects negatively on the reputation or identity of the school. Applicable rules and regulations in the Student/Parent Handbook are in effect and must be observed. It is understood that if a student willfully disregards these rules, the supervisor/chaperone will notify the parents/guardian. Serious consequences, including suspension/expulsion, may be recommended by the Dean of Students or the Disciplinary Board. If parents need to be notified, an administrator of the school will also be contacted. Law enforcement agencies will be notified of, and involved in, situations deemed appropriate/necessary by the retreat supervisor or as required by law. 2. The students are subject to the authority of the supervisor and chaperones at all times. If a student has any concern about the behavior of fellow students, they are duty bound to bring these concerns to the supervisor and/or chaperone. 3. Major infractions may result in the student being sent home. In such case parents/guardians will be notified and are responsible to pick students up or make arrangements for the student s transportation from the retreat center at the parent s expense with no refund for any remaining portion of the retreat. Any additional expenses will be charged to the student/parents. Disciplinary action will be determined upon the student s return to school. 4. In the event of illness or accident, the supervisor will determine the course of action to follow and shall be authorized to act in loco parenti, that is, to proceed in the place of the parent. Teachers shall not assume liability, either expressed or implied, for an action taken in the best interest of the student. Parents agree to assume any medical expenses not covered by their own family medical insurance policies. 5. Any medication that must be administered during the overnight/extended trip, either over the counter or prescribed medicine, requires a physician s written order and parental authorization be given to the trip supervisor. Required medication must be in a properly labeled container. The student may carry and self-administer the medication during the trip. 6. The nightly curfew will be when students are dismissed to bed following the evening s final activity. Students are expected to be in their own room with the lights out at this time. Bed checks will be made. Students may not leave the retreat center at anytime. The retreat center staff has been advised to notify the supervisor if there is any infraction of this rule.
