Global Education Program Announces 2016-17 Immersion Experiences
Friends is excited to announce two immersion experiences for students this spring break: Colombia and Morocco. These global education trips are designed to help Upper School students connect across cultures and to discover the world.
Students and parents interested in learning more about these immersion experiences are invited to attend an information session on Wednesday, November 16 from 6:15-7:15 PM in the Alumni Room. (Ninth grade families are invited to drop by at the end of their parent meeting that evening.) Trip leaders and staff from our travel partners, Envoys, will be on hand to answer questions and go over trip objectives and itineraries.
