[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The only parents that annoy me are the ones who take every field trip slot. In my eldests grade it's one married couple. In 6 years I've never gotten to go on a field trip but this same couple is always there. For every other volunteer slot, there is generally no competition and we're just there to get the job done.[/quote] When my kids were in ES, I usually didn’t sign up for field trips but let the teachers know I was available if they didn’t get enough volunteers. I got called for about 75% of those trips. I did sign up for one trip where the class was to meet a famous and widely admired person. That was the only trip I remember where parents came out the woodwork to volunteer, some of whom had never volunteered before. It was hilarious. [/quote]
