Join us for our first organizational meeting in Room 112 at 6 p.m. on September 16 to learn about this incredible opportunity (and get to know more about the teacher leading your students abroad!). We're excited to tell you more about the trip we're planning with EF Tours, our educational partner. Please register for our info session to be considered for this upcoming travel opportunity.
In our session, we'll cover how this opportunity will benefit your child, what's included in the experience, how we'll keep the trip safe and affordable, and more. Plus, if we haven't met yet, it's a good chance to learn more about me as both an educator and a group leader. Registration for this session is required to help us organize the meeting, and a parent or guardian must attend. Can't make it? Choose "No, but send info" so you don't miss out.
