2022 Interim Term Travel
In light of the unprecedented interest in the Interim Term Disney trip, we will allow registration to remain open through the announced date of October 14, at which time we will select participants by lottery. All those not selected will be placed in a wait pool or may sign up for the Big Bend trip if there are still spaces left.
If you were told that Disney is full and have not yet registered, you may still get your registration to Mrs. Michael by October 14, and you will be considered for the lottery.
You'll find more details about both interim term travel opportunities and registration here.
Big Bend Adventure 2022
A hidden gem in western Texas, Big Bend National Park has a little bit of everything: rivers, mountains, canyons, and wildlife. On this trip, students will expand their knowledge of geology, astronomy, the environment, and the rich cultural history of the area. Students will enjoy hiking, river cruises, horseback riding, and visits to Carlsbad Caverns, Santa Elena Canyon.
You'll find more details about both interim term travel opportunities and registration here.
