Field trips--too important to be canceled

Recently, Cheshire Academy proposed canceling all the field trips to save money and lower tuition fees. As my point of view, learning from places out of campus would be an excellent experience for the students, and money should not be the obstacle that stops the precious knowledge. Therefore, I do not regard canceling field trips as a good plan for Cheshire Academy.  

First of all, field trips are also a part of the course content, and canceling them would erase the chance for students to contact with a bigger world. Sitting in the classroom and listen to the words come out of teachers' mouths might be the most ordinary scene in every high school students' life. They learn from talking, listening, watching, and thinking under the teachers' guides. However, those practices in the classrooms are only for the outsiders. Students do not have the chance to really understand this complicated world from resources other than their teachers or the text books. Students need feeling, and involving. Take myself as an example, when I was learning painting in China, my teacher kept telling me how gorgeous Monet's skills were. I studied his works and imitated his style. Nonetheless, everything I learned from hundreds of art classes has been changed three months ago. When I went to the art museum with my art teacher in Cheshire Academy, I saw Monet's real work. Standing in front of the painting, I observed his millions of tiny strokes, they were solid and raised. I suddenly noticed how stupid I was to paint my strokes attached plainly on the paper. That field trip improved my painting skills a lot. The experience of filed trip could put students on the different side of knowledge, and help them to absorb the text book better.      

Second of all, canceling field trips would not save much money for Cheshire Academy, and parents would not mind to pay for their children's unique improvement. How much would a field trip cost? Cheshire Academy has its own buses and drivers, so it is easily to take students out without extra money cost. Moreover, most of field trips are in museums, which have the low or even no ticket price. Therefore, field trips do not need much amount of money to be supported. Most of parents have told their children:  " We would like to do everything for you." All parents wish their children could have some brilliant futures, which I argue is also why they sent their children to Cheshire Academy. As my point of view, a parent would not like to reduce their children's rights to study only for the tuition fee. Apparently, canceling field trips might not only save much less money than people thought, but also cause parents' disagreements. 

All in all, field trips are an important part for students in Cheshire Academy, and canceling them may not lead to the good result that school has suspected. Hence, do not erase students' chances to explore this world.
