[quote=Anonymous]I was recently a chaparone for DC's class field trip to Mount Vernon. Everybody in the group was carrying a small bag because the students were planning to eat a snack during a boat cruise. It took a while to get everyone through security as they required all bags to be checked which resulted in needing to skip a planned activity. One adult said it was an error on the part of the Mount Vernon staff that our group was delayed so much because they student groups are not supposed to be subjected to bag checks. In looking at the website, I don't see any exclusion for school groups and tend to think the school staff member arranging the trip should have known bags would be checked and planned for this in the schedule. What do you think? Was the Mount Vernon staff unaware of a policy saying elementary school groups shouldn't be subjected to bag searches? TIA[/quote]
