[quote=Anonymous]I am not in MoCo, but have been planning and organizing field trips for our school for 2 years as a parent volunteer. Our school is high farms and has some federal money to spend on trips as well as some PTA money so we didn’t pay anything out of pocket. It definitely is a lot of teacher discretion. Last year there were 2 first grades where one teacher was not a fan of field trips and another just didn’t care so we only had one trip (suggested and organized by me). This year there are three teachers and apparently there is a field trip enthusiast among them, they had a couple of cool ones. The buses are either limited in time or expensive. The trips also have to align with curriculum. There is a charter school nearby where parents always drive the kids and they have 5+ trips a year, some of them being a bit ridiculous TBH, like a trip to a park or grocery store. [/quote]
