[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a first grade teacher I have to say: missing a week and a half of school for a trip is unfair to your child, your child's teacher and the other students in the class. I have never had any of my families do this. [/quote] I've been a DCPS parent for 7 years and have never written a note and had no idea I was supposed to. Additionally we attend a school with many international families and it is routine for 3 or 4 kids in a class to miss a week or more for international travel -- less as the kids reach the upper grades. But the kids come back and talk about the experience -- bring local food, pictures, etc. to share -- its great. Hope it was a great trip OP and that you would do it again. [/quote]
