Invitation to Join
Dear Moab Charter School Parents and Students,
Bettina Oesch here! I've been the 6th grade teacher at the Moab Charter School going on 5 years now. Working with the school board and director, I was able to organize an experiential learning opportunity for MCS students (and MCS alumni) to travel abroad and get the chance to learn about different cultures and walk in the footsteps of ancient history.
There are 3 things we aim to achieve on this educational tour.
1. Learn more about the world through culture, history, adventure, and experiential learning. We’ll be visiting all of the main sites, taking expertly guided tours, visiting museums, cooking and dining with locals, and meeting other students their age.
2. Learn more about ourselves through the challenges of travel, cooperation, and reflection. Our group will be out of our comfort zone exploring Italy as a team. This time is the most important for a child to develop independence and confidence, and our educational trip will focus on helping students do so in a safe environment. Students on our trip range in ages 11-15 years old.
3. Learn more about ourselves out in the world while making memories to last a lifetime! Our goal is to give them a sense of placement in the world to help them on their way to making a future for themselves. There is a world beyond Moab and Grand Junction.
If you are a 4th- 9th grader that has attended MCS (and will be less than 16 years old at time of travel), you are invited to pack your bag, get out of your comfort zone, and come on a journey with me and your fellow students to Italy! Summer 2020 I will lead a group of students to Italy on an educational tour.
You have probably received some sort of information about our adventure in the past year, but this serves as a final reminder to sign up before it's too late! There are only limited Spots left & enrollments are on a first-come, first-serve basis.
How to sign your child up: Please visit www.eftours.com/2149068HW to sign up. You can also call the traveler support team at 800-665-5364, but signing up online is faster and easier!
