Spain Trip 2011

From June 13th to June 22nd of 2011, a group of St. Francis students and faculty will be taking the trip of a lifetime to Spain. This structured program includes sightseeing trips, excursions, walking tours and many exciting local activities. A full-time, specially selected tour manager for ACIS (www.acis.com) will accompany us on all of our educational excursions and assist us in making the most of our free time. Some of the trip highlights are hands on workshops involving the cultural aspects of food, art, dance, and pastimes in Spain as well as getting to know the cities of Granada, Córdoba, Barcelona, Montserrat, Madrid, Toledo, and Segovia. Please join us in an informational meeting Monday, March 15th at 7:00 p.m. in the Spartan Theater. Interested students are required to bring a parent. It is highly recommended that the students interested in the trip have two years of Spanish classes at St. Francis. With any questions, please contact Profe Brand.
