School committee approves senior class trip to Brownstone Adventure Park
Summary
The Webster School Committee approved an out-of-state senior class trip to Brownstone Adventure Park in Portland, Conn., scheduled May 28 with an overnight component; organizers said fundraising will cover all costs so students will not pay.
The Webster School Committee voted to approve a senior class out-of-state field trip to Brownstone Adventure Park in Portland, Connecticut, with an overnight finish planned for May 28. The committee moved and passed the measure by roll call.
A staff presenter described the planned itinerary — arrival for the park's 10 a.m. opening, activities including zip-lining, swimming and an overnight — and said "Those would be at no cost to the students," noting that all funding, including the bus, will come from fundraising. Committee members thanked staff for organizing the event and the motion was seconded and carried in the roll call vote.
The superintendent and staff emphasized the trip is funded by student fundraising and will include on-site meals; committee members asked no substantive changes to the plan before the vote. The committee did not record any abstentions in the roll call recorded during the meeting.
Next steps: organizers will finalize logistics and notify families about schedules and any required permission forms.
