Global/Electronic Permission Slips

All --

Hope your summers are terrific and relaxing.

We are a K-8 school that takes a LOT of field trips. It's a major =
logistical headache (and paper drain) to send out and collect permission =
slips for every trip, no matter how small -- hard on the teachers, =
challenging for families, etc. Do any of your schools just have parents =
sign a "global permission slip" that authorizes students to go on =
school-related, daytime field trips? If so, would you be willing to =
share one with me? Anyone know why such a slip would be problematic?

Along these lines -- anyone use an electronic permission slip of some =
kind? =20

I'm sure this information exists, but I am having some difficulty =
tracking it down, and ISED is invariably my go-to in these circumstances =
-- thanks for any help.

Best,

Mitch
