[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My 3rd grader is going to Kid Museum, and it's costing us $29. Over the years, it's been $6-10. We live in an area with free museums, why not go there? They also used to let chaperones go for free, and now they have to pay, even when it's just a bus ride to a Smithsonian. What if next year it's $50, or $100, where do they draw the line? Of course we all want our kids to go and not be excluded or need to ask the PTA for financial help, but is it impossible to pick something affordable?[/quote] Are they using MCPS busses between 10 and 2 or are they using a charter bus. Depending on the distance it could be $300-500 for the bus. Then they’re off have to factor in the kids that won’t ever pay or be held accountable so they bump up the costs[/quote]
