• Trip to France with EF Tours, our educational travel partner! Please join us at the information session over Zoom on 3/14 at 7:00 pm to learn more about this incredible opportunity.
  

   

  When students travel, they expand their knowledge of the world around them, discover more about themselves, and grow more confident. These skills are critical for creating the global citizens of tomorrow, and we would love to have your student join us on this adventure.

   

  Anyone interested in joining must RSVP for this info session, and a parent or guardian needs to attend. Can't make it? Choose "No, but send info" so you don't miss out. RSVP here: https://rsvp.eftours.com/y46g9b2
