Each spring the eighth grade students take a trip to Washington D.C. as a culmination of what they have learned in Social Studies during the year. A typical trip includes visits to Arlington Cemetery, Gettysburg, Smithsonian Museums, and various memorials. Students who wish to attend must make themselves aware of the trip guidelines, which include academic, behavioral, attendance and medical components.
The 2026 8th-grade trip is scheduled for April 21 - 24, 2026 (Tues. - Fri.)
