"Hello, parents! My name is Baxter Frick, and I am thrilled to be leading this year’s Washington, D.C. trip over spring break. As an 8th-grade U.S. History teacher for the past nine years at Placerita Jr. High, I am passionate about bringing history to life for students. This will be my sixth time traveling to D.C. with our school, and each year, I love seeing students connect what they’ve learned in the classroom to the real-world landmarks and stories that shaped our nation. Throughout the trip, students will experience incredible sites like the National Cathedral, Arlington National Cemetery, the monuments along the National Mall, and even a visit to Jamestown to explore early American history among numerous other great experiences. This adventure is packed with engaging, educational, and unforgettable moments, and I hope you’ll consider signing up your student for this amazing opportunity.
If you have any questions, please feel free to email me—I’d be happy to help! I look forward to an incredible trip with your students."
