[quote=Anonymous]The high cost is to cover the transportation. I plan a field trip from an MCPS school to Historic St. Mary's City every year. Admission is $6.50 per student, however the cost per student for this trip is always around $40 (give or take a couple of dollars, depending on the total number of students going on the trip). You take the cost of admission, add the transportation using private buses, and divide it by the number of students going on the trip. For example: $6.50 admission x 70 students = $455 Transportation Cost: $2,500 Cost per student = 455 + 2,500 = $2,955/70 = $42.21 At my school, we would round down to $42, we never add money to the cost per student to make up for students that don't pay the full amount. Private transportation is very expensive![/quote]
