Say your child got in trouble at school and is not aloud to go to the school fieldtrip?

Question

and u gave money to the teacher before you got a letter saying that your child got in trouble in school and saying that he or she is not able to go to the class trip due to his or her behavior. Does your child teacher give u back the money u gave her or keeps the money? I was amazed that my son teacher gave me back my money along with the letter!

Answer 1

At our school, the money is kept because it gets sent along immediately.

Answer 2

its fair but in some cases you can't get your money back

Answer 3

They should refund the money.  My school does.

Answer 4

It is proper unless the teacher had already given the money.

Answer 5

They should give money back... it's fair.

Answer 6

I think it was right that she gave you the money back, afterall, your child didn't go.

Answer 7

the teacher did the right thing with the money.

Answer 8

I would expect the money back of course as my child wouldn't be going.

Answer 9

What would be the reason for her to keep the money if your son didn't go on the trip?

Answer 10

of course the teacher is going to give the money back. if your child was naughty and cant go on the fieldtrip, the teacher will give your money back ecause your son is going and the teacher doent need the money so thats nice they give your money back some places cant give the money back

Answer 11

That was fair.  The only way I think she would not give you the money back is if the trip was something that had to be paid in advance like a theater ticket.  Sounds like you have a good teacher.  It is your son who should be punished, not you.  :-)

Answer 12

well there is no really promblem here. your son due to his behavior could not go on the field trip after you payed for it. since he didn't go you should get the money

Answer 13

It probably depends on whether or not they already paid for the trip.  If they had, then you should not get your money back.  Either way though, I would not expect my money back because I would be more concerned about making sure that my child behaves himself.
