8th Grade to Philadelphia- Oct.8-11, 2022

Our 8th graders will enjoy an amazing trip taking them to Independence Hall, the site of the Constitutional Congress and the signing of the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution, and to the Liberty Bell. They will travel through history to find themselves right in the middle of the battlefield in Gettysburg, PA! On this trip, they will learn, and touch, more of the history they hear in the classroom. We will also take a trip over to Lancaster, PA to experience Amish Country and the precious people to still live a truly austere life.  A truly remarkable trip into history!

Our trip to New York is a student favorite for many of our seniors and juniors.  On our trip to NY, we take in all the sights! We visit Central Park, take in a Broadway Show, tour Manhattan, visit Lady Liberty, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the 9/11 Museum, and many other sites that New York City provides.  Another fun highlight for our students is ice skating in Central Park and touring NBC Studios.  These trips are a learning opportunity for our students but also allow the kids to make memories for a lifetime.
