I agree and consent to the Permission Slip and that I have reviewed the Code of Conduct with my student.

Dear Parents,

We are planning a field trip to Elitch Gardens. Our field trip will be on Saturday, May 16, 2026. Buses will leave BLPA promptly at 9:00 am and return by 7:00 pm. Field trip cost options are outlined in the last section of the 8th Grade Elitch Gardens Field Trip Form.

Please sign (electronically) the permission slip below and purchase ticket(s) by Friday, May 8th, 2026. Tickets purchased after this date will need to be personally purchased, by you, on the Elitch Gardens Website. 

Thank you,

Field Trip Permission Slip

Informed Consent

As the parent/guardian of the above-named student under age 18, I understand I must sign this form before my student may participate in the field trip and acknowledging the following:

• I give permission for my student to participate in this field trip and be transported as noted above.

• I have read the field trip itinerary and understand that there may be risks of physical injury associated with participation in the activities.

•  I also understand that participation in the field trip will involve activities off school property; therefore, neither the school district, the school or its employees and volunteers will have any responsibility for the condition or use of any non-school property.

• I authorize qualified emergency medical professionals to examine, and in the event of injury or serious illness, administer emergency care to, the above-named student. I understand effort will be made to contact me and emergency contact(s) listed above to explain the nature of the problem prior to any involved treatment. In the event it becomes necessary for the school staff-in-charge to obtain emergency care for my student, neither he/she nor the school or district assumes financial liability for expenses incurred because of the accident, injury, illness and/or unforeseen circumstances.

• I agree to inform the school nurse and/or principal at the school named above, as appropriate, of any health issues or changes in health status that may affect or limit my and/or my child’s participation in the field trip listed above, including, but not limited to, medications being taken, dates of hospitalization in the last year and the reasons for any such hospitalization, any illnesses and any other special health-related issues.

• The field trip is an extension of the school education program and student conduct is to be in accordance with the school’s published rules and regulations. 

To ensure a safe and successful event, students are expected to follow the guidelines outlined in the BLPA Student Handbook and our Classroom Social Contracts, as well as the specific expectations listed below.
