Potty Target for Boys to Pee On?

My 6 year old son always seems to end up making a bit of a mess when he pees. He goes standing up. (My 3 year old still sits down and that works fine). I tell him to aim and wipe up any on the potty (or the floor) but of course, that only works so well. It seems like I once heard about some sort of product you can put in the toilet to be a "target" for them to "shoot" at.

Should I Be Honest with Principal

We decided our dd is not going on the out of town trip because the teacher she is assigned to doesn't,t properly supervise the class bully and our child doesn't.t want to go.

The principal will be upset and want to fix it but I think this teacher is a dud. She also gave a project over spring break and we had to delay our trip which shows bad judgement too.
