Trips shall not include activities for which appropriate insurance is unavailable. ● First aid kits, appropriate to the nature and destination of individual trips, will be available for all trips. ● Written procedures for access to emergency medical care, communication availability, travel condition alternatives, and emergency procedures will be in place and on file with the Principal prior to departure. ● Upon completion of an Environmental Education trip, an evaluation concerning any injuries/illnesses and/or any disciplinary matters will be made by the faculty sponsors, which will then be reviewed by the Outdoor Education Coordinator and if necessary, by the Principal.

Parents must take the following into consideration when authorizing their student’s participation in an Environmental Education trip: ● The nature and purpose of some trips may expose students to a degree of risk not typical of regular on-campus classes. ● At some periods during some trips, immediate and/or twenty-four hour telephone communications will not be available.

Please note that students will be placed on one of these trips and changes will not be possible unless due to extreme circumstances.

Student Leadership Team (SLT)

Every student in the Nido Middle School who wants to be involved in the Student Leadership Team may do so. At the beginning of each semester an organizational meeting will be held for any students who are interested. Participants will maintain an acceptable level of academic performance and represent the school and the SLT in a respectful, positive manner.

Additional opportunities for student leadership will occur throughout the year and students will be informed of these opportunities either by email or through the MS daily announcements. Students may volunteer for any leadership position.
