Throughout the school year, buses are available for field trips during the hours of
9:40 a.m. - 2:10 p.m.,
which do not interfere with regular transportation programs. Buses are available after
4:35 p.m.
on school days and are also available on weekends. Due to bell time modifications, it is imperative that buses arrive back to school no later than
2:10 p.m.
Does your school need help with Web Trips? The Transportation Field Trip Unit staff will be happy to answer your questions. Please call 301-444-8610 for assistance.
New field trip rates for
