[quote=Anonymous] I think it's a wonderful idea and would be 100% behind the fundraising effort. It exposes the children to something many Title I students never see. Additionally, it levels the playing field between Latino students who may or may not travel back to their families' country of origin and those with roots here, in the States. It gives the children something to share, a great experience. It's a middle class privilege that should be extended to all students, as much as possible. My children take international travel for granted, it's part of how we function as a family. It's one of the things that differentiates them from their classmates, this world travel. It certainly differentiates them from their grandparents' life experiences as the generation that moved beyond the working class. What's your hesitation? It seems life-altering, so positive![/quote]
