[quote=Anonymous]My 5th grader had a trip to the Air & Space Museum yesterday. Cost $15, school buses, back at school for a late lunch. Said they saw a total of one exhibit, a 3D movie, and got lost because it was so crowded with tourists that the small group got separated from their class. Seriously—why on earth would anyone plan a Smithsonian field trip in the middle of tourist season? With a late-start elementary school, it's bad enough getting down there and back in time for the afternoon bus routes, never mind fighting traffic and crowds. (We're downcounty, so I can't imagine how upcounty schools could do it.) I guess as long as they're missing class, the kids don't care, but it seems like a waste of time, and stressful for teachers, I'm sure.[/quote]
