Spring Break Trip
Attention Los Alamos Middle School and homeschool 8th grade parents. It’s not too late to sign up for this year’s spring break trip to Washington, D.C. This is the 41st year for this once-in-a-lifetime annual trip for your student to travel with their peers to our nation’s capital!
Sign up quickly to lock in your reservation and trip price. Price for the trip could possibly increase after Jan. 9! Flexible payment plans are available with Worldstrides for this trip .
The trip is a private trip and not a school-sponsored trip and has been offered to Los Alamos Middle School students for 41 years.
The trip will include round-trip air transportation, sightseeing, transportation in and around Washington, D.C. and Baltimore, Md., all meals and admissions, hotel accommodations, night chaperones in the hotel, and accident and health insurance. An on-call doctor is available for student illness or emergencies.
Highlights of the trip include the White House, a Capitol tour, the Pentagon Memorial, the Washington Monument, the Holocaust Museum, the Smithsonian museums, the National Zoo, Arlington National Cemetery, night tours of the Presidential Monuments (Lincoln, FDR, and Jefferson memorials), the Iwo Jima, Korean, and the Vietnam Memorials, the National Aquarium in Baltimore, and much more.
Four students will be selected to lay the morning wreath at Arlington National Cemetery Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. The wreath-laying ceremony will be at 9:15 a.m. on March 30. Your student could be one of the lucky students to have the honor of laying the morning wreath at Arlington National Cemetery!
The trip will be four days and three nights in duration. The group will stay in a five-star hotel in Arlington or Crystal City, minutes from the DC sites.
