[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Multiply the fees for uniforms, trips, and other things, the cost becomes excessive especially for families who have multiple children in the school. It’s unnecessary and excessive. Some things run through the school accounts but most don’t. I personally do not believe anyone is financially profiting except for the chosen vendors, however, who would know because there’s no oversight.

Such excessive fees discourage participation for what are public school activities. When trips are involved, students pay for the school staff who chaperone so staff do get the perk of a free trip.[/quote]

People I know in other businesses not only get their work trips paid for by their employer, they get paid for the days they are on those trips, and they get perks like choosing where to eat and having someone else pay for their food on the trips!

Yes, as a teacher who is using my unpaid leave time to accompany the kids on a trip, I don’t also expect to have to pay for working 16 hour days to make your kids’ trip safe and possible.  Suggesting otherwise is like whining that your hotel maid was getting a free “stay” in your hotel room while scrubbing the toilet.[/quote]
