Class Trips

These class trips are designed to enhance students’ learning experience by providing hands-on, real-world connections to what they are studying in the classroom.  These trips will also provide fun activities which will result in positive memories of their time at Flat Rock.

Payments may be made online at schoolcashonline.com, or students may bring their payment in to their homeroom teacher.  Cash or checks accepted (Checks should be made out to Flat Rock Middle School).

We want every student to have the opportunity to attend their class trip. Fundraising opportunities will be available for those who may find the cost to be a barrier.

***Reminder: To be eligible to attend class trips, each student must have all outstanding school fees and balances paid in full (Chromebook damage or replacement fees, library fines, Agenda or locker fees, cafeteria charges, etc.)

We will be sending home additional information throughout the year, including a detailed itinerary, packing list (if necessary), and permission slip. If you have any questions or concerns, or if you would like more information about fundraising opportunities, please contact your student’s homeroom teacher.

Please note that any student with 4 or more days of Out of School Suspension (OSS) during the school year will not be permitted to attend the class trip. Any class trip payments paid by these students will not be refunded.
