The Code of Conduct outlines rules for students, including common sense guidelines pertaining to safety and behaviour. The Code of Conduct can be viewed on our website, http://s-trip.com, and must be signed by both students and parents/ guardians prior to departure.

Check-In and Quiet Hours

Students are required to check-in with their designated trip leader three times a day. Check-in must be done by the student and cannot be completed by a friend or roommate. Quiet hours are from 10p.m.-7a.m. Final check-in is at 1a.m., at which time all students must be in their own rooms.
