Our expectation of you:

• Your group will not exceed 80 students and will maintain a 10:1 student to adult chaperone ratio. No exceptions.
• You are responsible for the care, custody and supervision of your group for the duration of your field trip. This includes ensuring sufficient oversight (meeting the required 10:1 ratio) and providing all transportation.
• Prompt and professional communication. Notify our staff of any changes to your schedule as early as possible so we can adjust accordingly. NOTE: We do not allow changes to itineraries after two weeks prior to your scheduled date.
• Arrive on time. If your group is more than 15 minutes late to the first scheduled activity or any subsequent activity, it will require us to shorten or cancel scheduled activities.
• Be respectful of presenters and campus facilities. Please remember faculty, staff and students participate in our program voluntarily and in addition to their regular duties on campus.
• Adhere to the terms outlined in the WSU Pullman K-8 Field Trips Campus Visit Agreement sent in the registration process. The WSU Pullman K-8 Field Trips Program is an unfunded, community service provided by the Brelsford WSU Visitor Center as part of WSU’s land-grant mission. We reserve the right to terminate our assistance with coordinating a field trip or decline future field trips if deemed necessary.

NOTE: Field trip itineraries are created based on requested preferences, presenter and classroom availability and with adequate travel time. Some activities have limited capacity and will require larger groups to be split into smaller groups to accommodate space restrictions.
