[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is not the only school where this issue has come up.  Honestly from DCPS and DC government perspective they were taking on a lot of liability for trips planned by teachers and parents.  They would be the ones sued if something happened.  I don’t blame DCPS for this one.[/quote]

Well . . . Hmmm . . . Possible liability, huh?  I cannot imagine . . . What to do, what to do — if ONLY we had some dang lawyers around in this here town!

Wait, I once remember reading something about — wait — what was it called?  A “W-A-I-V-E-R?”  [/quote]

If only a lawyer around here could comment that a waiver does not prevent being sued.  Or bad press if something happens to a kid.  Or if a teacher or parent chaperone doesn’t follow the DCPS guidelines and rules.  All it takes is not following one small rule and a parent can claim they signed the waiver but the chaperones didn’t follow the outlines rules and procedures.  Trips literally have left kids alone in foreign countries before.  You clearly know nothing about what a liability this is.[/quote]
