More than 70 students took part in the first European trip organized by the school in 15 years, led by foreign language teachers Antonio Franze` and Carmen Campos.

Several staff members joined the trip, which included visits to the Colosseum, the Roman Forum, the Pantheon, the Vatican, the Leaning Tower of Pisa, Las Ramblas, the Prado, and Las Plazas Mayor y del Sol among others

“This trip was an opportunity to open their eyes to what our world has to offer. It is important that our youth realize that the world is bigger than our town limits and we only hope that this was a taste of what their future may hold,” Franze' said.

“Travel is the best gift a parent can give to a child, it not only educates them on another level, but it showcases lifestyles that are so much more different than our own.”
