Board approves third- and fourth-grade field trip to Shark Tooth Creek on May 5, 2026

The Bibb County Regular School District board approved a request for third- and fourth-grade ‘tag’ students at Brent Elementary School and Randolph Elementary School to travel to Shark Tooth Creek in Aliceville, Alabama, on May 5, 2026.

The superintendent recommended the trip, noting that students "will explore the creek in ankle deep water." The board moved to approve the request as part of the regular agenda, a motion was seconded and carried by voice vote with members responding "Aye." The transcript does not record a breakdown of transportation, chaperone ratios, insurance or permission-slip procedures.

The field trip was included on the regular agenda and approved alongside routine business such as the approval of minutes, bills and consent items. No costs, funding sources or specific academic objectives were provided in the recorded discussion. The superintendent and staff credited volunteers and school staff for supporting student activities generally during later remarks.

Parents and guardians seeking details on permission slips, travel logistics or the planned instructional goals should contact district administration; the transcript contains only the travel date, participating grades, schools and the destination.
