Expedition to the Andes and Amazon Rainforest- April 2023
Miss Holloway is once again leading an expedition to the Andes and Amazon Rainforest for Miscoe Hill students and parents! This incredible travel opportunity sold out (at 80 people!) in less than a week our very first year, and was a phenomenal experience for all travelers!
Highlights of the trip include: standing on the equator, hiking through the Amazon Rainforest, river tubing, a waterfall excursion, visiting an animal rescue center, white water rafting, zip-lining through the jungle, visiting with the indigenous Kichwa people, soaking in thermal hot springs, volunteering at a local school, and SO MUCH MORE!
Students that are currently in the 6th and 7th grade are eligible to attend. We will be traveling over the April 2023 School Vacation. Easy monthly payment plans, fundraising opportunities, and scholarships are available to help make this trip accessible for all!
Families will be able to sign up on a first-come, first-served basis. Students will NOT be notified if they are enrolled, so consider giving the gift of travel this holiday season and surprise your child with the adventure of a lifetime!
Please direct any questions to Miss Holloway at lholloway@mursd.org.
