Field Trip Process

Act One works with schools that serve a high percentage of students from households that qualify for free or reduced-price lunch and are part of the Federal Title I Schoolwide program.

What we do:

Act One makes planning an educational field trip to the arts a fun and easy process for teachers teaching in Title I schools. Not only do we organize the entire trip, Act One also covers the cost of admission to the field trip and reimburses for the entire cost of transportation to/from the field trip.

To qualify for the Act One field trip program, schools must be:

  • Be designated as Title I with at least 40% of students on free and reduced-price lunch
  • Be in Arizona within busing distance of the field trip location (75 miles or less)
  • A district/charter public school
  • Students must be in grades preK-12

We coordinate your trip with the arts organization, pay the admission cost to the field trip, and send teaching materials to help you prepare students for the field trip experience. Additionally, Act One will reimburse your school’s full transportation costs to/from the field trip (or book buses for schools without access to district busing).
