If you are in the same school, do you know what might have happened? It’s not that tuition has gone down and the school needs to cut costs—quite the opposite.


The teacher who organized the Broadway experience left said school at the end of last year and I’m guessing that is why it did not happen this year.


But some kids did go to see a show though. OP said her child wasn’t given a choice, so clearly something weird happened.


Ooooooh maybe OP's kid gave her the same level of transparency she is giving us in order to get what they wanted... 🍎🌳

I’m sure they went to Dave and Busters. I’m sure they went to a museum for much more than 30 minutes. I’m sure there was much more to the trip than the OP reported.

And unless you’re accusing the school of fabricating the itinerary, why did you sign the permission slip if you were so aghast with the intent? This is so clearly BS.


+1 to all of this.

Field trips that do not any value to education are completely worthless (Specially spending several hours in D&B's).

And completely fabricated stories to garner comments and fuel dopamine are equally stupid.

It is a beautiful day outside and I do recommend taking advantage of it if you can!

Well this thread was designed for parents in one school. Of course feel free to :

1. Ignore it.
2. Complain about it.
3. Comment on why such an expensive school organize such poor quality trips. I still don't get it.
