I'm a teacher and I spent the weekend doing household chores, correcting papers and resting up for the week ahead.  Hope that's okay with the OP.  [/quote]

I'm sure it is. But during the summer you should definitely be in Jamestown.[/quote]

Please post your phone number so the teacher can contact you for reimbursement for this additional work day and to cover other costs (babysitting, missed day at summer job, travel costs, etc).

You chose to be a teacher, you knew about this job, you knew teaching involves constant education (that includes visiting museums, historic places, science centers, etc). Kids appreciate when their teachers transmit a passion for learning and making efforts to learn good stuff every day. If teaching is not your passion and you're asking someone else to be your constant fundraiser...you need to part ways with the profession. No one gave me a single extra quarter dollar when I was looking for a job and finally was hired by an organization where I grew professionally. I went on many local and OOT trips by myself without asking reimbursement to anyone. Going on trips open your mind. Trust me.[/quote]

I am not a teacher. I am a parent and I think you are being ridiculous. Beyond ridiculous.

The time and cost for a day trip to Jamestown is more than $10.

If this is something YOU are passionate about then find a way to support teachers and make it happen. If you aren't willing to do that then just STFU.
