[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yeah all the PTA can do is throw money at you, maybe (not if you’re at a title 1 school). Requesting the field trip, getting approval, communicating with the venue, getting permission slips, taking the health training for the kids with medical issues who go, because if a kid with epilepsy or diabetes is on your trip you have to be trained to assist them, and they will always be on the trip, putting the lunch orders in with the cafeteria and picking them up, arranging for chaperones, creating student groups, getting there, keeping track of the kids, and getting back- this is SO MUCH WORK for often maybe 2 hours at the actual destination. Forgive us if we don’t choose to add this to our plates as often as you think you’re entitled to expect. [/quote] This is pretty much spot on. Others should not read this as a complaint, but rather a description. [/quote]
