Groups must be chaperoned at all times. A minimum of one chaperone for every 10 students is required. Failure to follow this rule may result in notification to school administrators and/or group expulsion. Here is the Chaperone Guide.

Remain on the bus until a NYSCI Explainer boards to give an orientation. At this time, a group leader will register and pay any outstanding balance at Admissions. To expedite check-in, pay for all classes as one payment. The Explainer will then collect lunches and coats from the visitors.

After a group leader registers, he or she will be given a receipt and directed to join the group again. The group leader should retain the receipt and create smaller groups with assigned chaperones.
