8th grade Trip Info

Washington D.C. May 28 - 30, 2020

As per CPS, all international and domestic travel is cancelled until further notice and therefore, unfortunately, this year’s trip to Washington, D.C. is canceled. FYI, participants who purchased the Full Refund Guarantee Program (FRP) are eligible for a refund of all monies paid less the cost of the program ($149.00 for the trip). If you have further questions and/or concerns, please contact WorldStrides at 800-468-5899. Thank you.
