Griffon High School Field Trips: Every student taking part in field trips provided by Griffon High School are expected to perform with the highest expectations and respect. See the Student Handbook for the full list of permissions and expectations.

Each over-night field trip is packed with learning opportunities and, as such, each student will keep a journal and document their activities – questions and answers, calculations, facts, and anything else the students believe to be important.

Over-Night Field Trip Journals are weighted differently for each subject by the students’ general education teachers. The journals will be weighted between 10-25% of the term grade.
