| Middle School :: Field Trips |
Middle school includes out-of-school trips to enrich and enhance
the classroom studies. These trips are educational and often life-changing.
They are certainly favorites of the students! The cost of these trips is in
addition to tuition. The trips may vary from year to year.
Team-building Retreat
Every fall, the middle school takes a one day retreat for team-building, fellowship, spiritual enrichment, and fun. This gives the students an opportunity to build new friendships across the middle school. The cost of the retreat is included in the general use fee.
Sixth Grade
A three-day field trip to Sky Ranch in Van, Texas focuses on service and outdoor learning. The students perform community service at several ministries and continue leadership training there. The cost of these trips is in addition to the cost of tuition and fees.
Seventh and Eighth Grades
A six-day trip to Washington, D.C./Williamsburg and New York City for an American history study or a "Tour of Texas" trip through Austin, the Hill Country and San Antonio. The trips alternate each year - DC/NYC even years, TX trips odd years (so we can see the Texas legislature in action). The cost of these trips is in addition to the cost of tuition and fees.
