[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Something is not right about this situation. The school can't discriminate against students in the program because they can't afford to spend $1200 on a field trip. That's extreme and many middle and upper middle class families may even have an issue with that. It doesn't matter that this trip was discussed at a meeting discussing the magnet program. Students cannot be excluded from the magnet program because they don't have the money for this (or parents have other priorities, like more than one child) and they certainly should not be discouraged from applying to the program. There has to be something more to this than what the OP has posted.[/quote] How bout fundraising? Car wash, selling candy, Claire’s Gourmet, Skyzone tickets, Spirit Night at restaurants? So many ways to help defray the cost of these field trips. They can start in 6th grade. [/quote]
