Venture Field Trip Policy

High school students earn 1 elective credit per field trip Sign up with Michaline by paying any trip fees . The Venture staff agreed that all science and social studies contracts should have one required field trip, and students who attend a Venture field trip will have met that requirement PLUS they will earn 1 elective credit per trip. This new policy will reward high school students who take advantage of the many Venture field trips that take us throughout the Bay Area.
