Tempe View faculty presented two student‑travel proposals during the Sept. 19 study session. Coach Zoe outlined a nationals trip to Anaheim, California, describing competitive benefits, college recruiting opportunities and planned time at Disneyland as team activities. Zoe noted schedule uncertainty (some game‑day categories moved to earlier days by the event organizer), the need to be on site for possible Thursday competitions, and constraints introduced by Disney’s reservation system.

Kennedy, Tempe View drama teacher, described a planned June trip to New York City for advanced drama students to see Broadway shows, participate in a backstage workshop or master class with a working professional, and immerse students in an intensive performing‑arts environment. Kennedy presented the trip as curricular enrichment tied to advanced coursework and college‑preparation activities; she said other district schools have taken similar trips.

Board members questioned trip specifics and administrative rules: trustees reminded proposers that district policy allows at most one day devoted to recreation or amusement‑park activities on a student trip, and asked staff to ensure the proposals meet fee‑waiver and curriculum linkage policies. Trustees indicated both proposals would be considered in the forthcoming business meeting where formal approval is taken.

The study session did not resolve approvals; trustees asked staff to confirm policy compliance and provide final itineraries and risk/transportation details for business‑meeting consideration.
