As a former band director. If a student was involved in a discipline issue they would be moved to my bus And they would sit next to me wherever I am, back or front. This is just stupidity. Chaperones do not handle discipline issues. They report them to the director and then they shut up and stay out of the way.

It's stupid, it's not the band director or the students being stupid.

Agreed but when I do a trip I have a chaperone meeting and I tell them exactly what they're expected to do and what they're limited to. Anytime you're taking kids on the road you're an idiot if you don't do this.
