As a parent and an animal lover I have many times been volunteered to take in the classroom pets for Christmas, spring and summer breaks. The children in the classes fed and watered the animals during school, I believe they were left completely unattended over the weekends, and the teacher took care of cleaning and days when the kids weren't there.
We have both donated enclosures to and received them from teachers. One teacher gave us 3 complete fish tank set-ups because she didn't want to deal with them anymore.
I used to take my snakes up to the school to educate the children and so my kids could share their pets. Unfortunately, now that the kids are older the teachers they have don't want the snakes in the classes.
