Additionally, students will see where slaves lived and learn why the slave trade was so important for South Carolina. This field trip meets specific eighth grade Social Studies standards. Any student who receives an out of school (OSS) suspension between the date of this letter and the date of the field trip will automatically be excluded from participating. Additionally, any student who receives more than two (2) in school suspensions (ISS) will be excluded from participating. The cost of the field trip is $35.00.
