[quote=Anonymous]We’re at a Title 1 school. Our PTO gives the school enough money to cover $12.50 of field trip costs for every child. Once the $12.50 is used up, the parents are asked to pay. Since kindergarten goes on some more trips to Shlagel Farms, more money per kid is allotted. Fourth grade just went to Jamestown. Kids ended up paying about $20 each. Again PTO made a one-time grant to offset costs, and the teachers applied for a grant (from Target, maybe?) to bring down the per student cost. The sixth graders go to Hemlock and get a grant from Hemlock to offset the costs. [/quote]
