On Feb. 18-19, 2025, during the 2025 School Winter Recess, we will take twenty-seven (27) middle-schoolers, each accompanied by his/her respective parent, by a chartered bus to Washington, D.C. This overnight educational trip will focus on the history of the civil rights movement, and on the travails of those who sacrificed so much in order to lay the path for us, and on the legendary figures in that struggle.
In addition to this educational experience, this Trip will also provide opportunities for enhanced parent-child bonding, especially in single-parent families. Providing a welcome respite from the monotony of daily grind. this Trip also gives the chance for learning together - and having fun and earning cash prizes!
Substantially subsidized by the Rotary Club, this Trip will cost a mere $100 per parent-child pair. Included are travel by charter bus to and from Washington, D.C., Museum Admission, dinner on February 18th. and breakfast and lunch on February 19th.
We've added two additional exciting features this year: An Essay Competition, and A Speech Contest, each for cash prizes totaling $500. Details of these to be announced. If interested, register below for the application form.
