[quote=Anonymous]This would be a big fat no for us -- I have a soon to be 6th grader and a soon to be 5th grader in DCPS. We travel internationally with them all the time -- which we don't do DURING the school year. The cost is ridiculous to ask parents to cough up. Don't start about the fundraisers, because that is a lot of pressure on parents too. Plus having gone on the 5th grade field trips which require buses only -- can't imagine a plane full of them or a hotel full of them. I would consider older kid, maybe 8th grade? But then I don't even know if the cost is worth the "benefit."[/quote]
