What this assumes
What needs a local check?
Use group counts, section labels, bus labels, or initials instead of a private student roster.
Keep medical details, emergency contacts, full room assignments, addresses, parent phone lists, payment records, and deposits in approved school or booster systems.
Trip approval, supervision, transportation, lodging, medication, dietary, refund, and payment rules must be checked with official school, district, booster, and travel sources.
Missing, malformed, or negative required numbers are flagged, and totals that depend on them stay pending. Entered dates must be real calendar dates.
The math
How the totals work
Total trip cost sums the cost rows. Net family cost subtracts program and fundraising offsets. Cost per student divides net family cost by the student count; cost per traveler divides by students plus adults. The deposit schedule totals per-student deposit rows and shows the remainder against cost per student.
Cost and offset rows are dollar totals. Entered rows need valid, nonnegative amounts; dependent totals stay pending until they are complete.
Cost per student = (total trip cost - offsets) / student count, rounded to cents. Counts are whole numbers.
Cost per traveler divides the same net amount by students plus adults for shared-cost sanity checks.
Deposit rows are per-student amounts; the tool warns when the schedule over- or under-collects against cost per student.
