Senior Trip will be May 13^th-18^th, and we will again travel to Disney World in Orlando, Florida! We estimated the trip to cost each student at least $1200 this year. Exact figures come later in the year as we purchase tickets, reserve rooms, and finalize all costs.

 

The money will include:

 ●                    3-Day Disney Park Hopper Pass

●                    2 Visits to Disney Water Parks

●                    1-Day Two Park Universal Studios Pass

●                    Lunch and dinner for 4 days

●                    Hotel (4/room occupancy)

●                    Transportation on a charter bus

 If we have more students than a 50-passenger bus will hold, we will allow students to fly. Those selected to fly are responsible for paying the $1200 plus the difference between the bus seat /plane ticket and the additional hotel accommodations. All plane tickets must be purchased through the school. We are unable to accommodate airline buddy passes. To be considered for the plane, students are required to have their accounts paid in full by December. This will give you additional time to pay for a plane ticket.

 Deposits for rooms, transportation, and airfare will be made during the first week of February. After this occurs, students will no longer be eligible for a refund. However, you could sell your trip to another senior student. It is also important that students and parents understand that all participants must be passing all classes on the 3^rd nine weeks’ report card, or if not, by the last progress report. If your student is not passing all classes now, they will not be eligible for a refund. The refund policy is set by Disney and out of the control of Shepherd High School. Students must meet compulsory attendance requirements, which means they cannot owe hours.

Payments are set up monthly from August through February; however, you can pay ahead. Rooms will be reserved in December, so all student accounts must be up to date at this time. If a student has not paid or committed to the trip by December, additions will be based only on room availability.

  The following are future deadlines:

●                    August 15^th                 $100

●                    September 14^th            $200

●                    October 16^th                $200

●                    November 15^th               $200

●                    December 14^th             $200

●                    January 16^th                 $200

●                    February 15^th               $10
