Wait-ting.
I put a call into the high school about the field trip, and am waiting on someone to call me back.
What I want to know is, if some students don't go, what will they do at school that day?
Will they be sitting in an all day study hall?
It's pretty much an all day field trip even though it's only right here in town, they will be missing most of their classes.
So, if a student doesn't go on the trip, where and what will they be doing?
I spoke to the principals secretary, who didn't even know about the field trip, was surprised that the principals signature is on the form, (it wasn't the teachers sig, it is the principals) and knew absolutely nothing about the cost, the chartered bus, nada.
You would think someone is the principals office would know about the trip and clear it, but if the secretary doesn't know, then how did this trip get approved?
I'll let you know what happens and what students will be doing if they don't go.
If it's an all day study hall, free periods, what's the point of students going?

I took my 12 yr old boy to the bodies exhibit in Atlanta. The info was way over our heads. The only thing he liked was the part the school most likely will not let your son see(dead fetus' and tumors). It stinks everyday the kids come home with" i need money for school" My school system is the pits no school buses at all they assume everyone should be able to take off anytime of the day and pick the kids up. My favorite is they will take my 16 year old out of town for wrestling matches but they will not give the guys rides back.
