*Your Field Trip Team works to set up workable dates and great places for our HRACS Field Trips. Sometimes things beyond our control limits our choices and dates. Occasionally, a field trip has to be canceled or a date/time/place changed. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
Field Trips are typically offered monthly and change year to year (although certain favorites are offered annually). Parents provide the transportation to locations. Students are typically free or require a small co-payment. Parents (and families) may also attend and pay the required price of entrance. The school typically is able to offer a discounted price to parents and non HRACS students that plan to attend with the school. Sign ups are handled on a first come, first served basis as space allows for the particular field trip designation.
