"All parents are encouraged to ensure that their children are adequately hydrated on days when temperatures are unusually high. For parents of students who attended this trip today you are encouraged to monitor your children for any symptoms related to heat illness (weakness, nausea, headache, dizziness, or blurred vision). Should you notice any of these symptoms you are encouraged to contact your health care provider," the email said.

According to a report by 6ABC, the students were taken to both Aria Health-Bucks County and St. Mary Medical Center.
