Street View: Should schools be charged for police vetting of staff and volunteers?

Not really. I know they have to be sure people aren't criminals, but schools have enough difficulty raising money. It's hard enough for them as it is.

Why not half and half? Incorporate the cost into the cost of camp, but the police should subsidise half the cost.

Yeah, I do. Someone's having to do the work.

Not really no. All kids should be able to go on camps and trips, they shouldn't be punished because of rising costs for their parents.

DANIEL CUSTER, 27

Mary Wall

No, it's hard enough already. There's the pressure to pay 'school donations', the rising costs on everything else and it may hurt a lot of parents. An extra $10 could be used for bread or milk.
