File Attachment:
Summary: Melanie Woodard, Perris High School (PHS) Social Science teacher and 10th grade Advancement Via Individual Determination (AVID) teacher, is in the process of planning their annual Southern California college trip for PHS AVID Sophomores. The dates are April 10-12, 2018. Approximately 50 students and 5 adult certificated chaperones will be visiting seven college campuses in and around the Los Angeles area.

The purpose of the trip is to introduce different college campuses to the students. The students have participated in day trips to local Southern California campuses but by being allowed to stay overnight, they can visit multiple campuses without being stuck in traffic. The main focus of AVID is attending college. This trip will motivate the students to keep up their grades and stay in AVID. The colleges on their itinerary include: CSU Northridge, UC Santa Barbara, CSU Los Angeles, University of Southern California, UC Los Angeles, Woodbury University and Azusa Pacific University.

The 50 students and 5 or more adults will be transported by bus. Hotel and meals will be at a cost of approximately $150 per person, which will be paid by the AVID Associated Student Body account via student fundraising.
Funding: The cost for this item is included in the 2017-18 operating budget funded through the PHS’s ASB account and student fundraising.
Recommendation: It is recommended that the Board of Trustees approve the overnight field trip request for Perris High School's Advancement Via Individual Determination students to visit Southern California college campuses on April 10-12, 2018.
