During our biennial Washington D.C. trip students will have the chance to visit historical sites, museums, and monuments that are important to American history and government.
The DC trip encompasses our Jr. High curriculum with many different facets. Our students will be continuing their social studies education by learning about the government and the various roles the government serves in our lives. Students will study science when they visit the Smithsonian Science Museum. There they will see how science, nature and humans all live together. We will learn about architecture when we visit the Hall of the Presidents which will continue our Art education. We will continue with our math curriculum during this trip when students calculate the distance and time for each place we will visit, and the duration of time spent there. The DC trip will have cross curricular activities which are contained in our daily studies and our diocesan curriculum.
This engaging fieldtrip will inspire students to become more engaged citizens and learn more about the political process.
