[quote=Anonymous]Honestly, why not just do most field trips by metro? DC is full of great things you can access via metro, walking, or other forms of public transportation: Zoo via metro Smithsonians/Mall/monuments via metro Kingman Island/Fields at RFK via metro and streetcar Rock Creek Park via metro Kennedy Center via metro And so on. I get that it's good for kids to get out of the city but is this compulsory Cox Farms trip the right way to do it? Especially when everyone in DC does the same trip around the same time every year? I mean ideally we'd have buses that had drivers who were properly licensed and not drunk, but if that's too expensive there is no reason kids can't still do field trips and experience new things outside their neighborhood and comfort zone without putting them at risk.[/quote]
