[quote=Anonymous] PP again, clarifying what I just wrote: Field trips are usually chosen and organized by the teachers. Often they are self-funding, without any help from the PTA - parents pay the cost up front. The difference you are missing is for the buses, which are very expensive (and the school may actually use funds for transportation, so as not to pass on the whole costs). The PTA organizes cultural arts and scientific events in every school, and possibly field trips too, and these are paid for with parent's donations during PTA fundraising events. Usually these events are planned many months in advance by parent volunteers (with school approval). This year's PTA events are funded with money raised last year.[/quote]
