[quote=Anonymous]Some parents have issues with sending their 10 year olds away by themselves. Some question the educational value of a tourist trip. Some want to go, but simply do not have the time to take off from work or the funds to accompany their children. But ALL of us question the wisdom of the parent association and the school making this one trip the be-all and end-all focus of the school year. Fund raisers starting in kindergarten, poor communication, non stop planning, lack of consideration for other alternatives are all serious issues.[/quote]
