[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our kids are in privates and publics. The public schools do seem to have more field trips, maybe double the number, and actually I think they choose more interesting trips as well.[/quote] We have had the exact opposite experience. Our child in private MS has taken lots of field trips. Our child in 8th grade in a W MCPS school has taken just 1 in 3 years. And in elementary school she had only 2 field trips total between K and 3rd grade. It made me sad for the kids. Thankfully the 4th and 5th grade teachers planned several great ones. Interestingly my current 2nd grader at the same MCPS school has several planned this year and seems on par with what our private K-8 school has planned for their 2nd grade. [/quote]
