24-25 Parent Meeting - Washington DC Trip Introduction

Trip Leaders

In partnership with WorldStrides, Ms. Saunders & Mr. Stempky are the Trip Leaders. They organize the students and all the details on the school end, whereas WorldStrides takes on organizing all the details of the trip and finances

Chaperones

All chaperone spots are filled with teachers here at Petoskey Middle School and within our district! Doing this reinforces the idea that this is a learning filled, educational trip. The time we get to spend with your child as they navigate these cities, is so special. At this time, we are not accepting parent volunteers, although we do appreciate your interest!
