This week-long adventure in Washington, DC, offers 8th graders an immersive experience in American history. Utilizing the metro system, students will tour iconic monuments, explore the Smithsonian museums, attend a production at Ford’s Theater, and meet with WA state senator, Patty Murray. The trip aims to foster independence, responsibility, and a critical appreciation of history, while also providing opportunities for students to bond and grow through the unique experiences of traveling away from home.
