Tanzania, Africa
MEANINGFUL. SUSTAINABLE. UNFORGETTABLE.
A group of our students were fortunate enough to have spent their February break in Tanzania, Africa!
Meaningful Service - Students were assigned to replace a floor in a school in the remote village of Oldonyawas in the Ashura region. Through this collaborative work, both our students and the community were enriched.
Cultural Immersion- Students lived, stayed and interacted with the community. We learned new customs, participated in Swahili language lessons, tasted new foods and delighted in the beautiful landscape.
Leadership Development- We developed and strengthened our leadership skills through activities and workshops, investigated global issues and explored social justice and environmental issues.

What our students had to say...
"Despite all my preparation, my senses were overloaded..."
A.P. Class of 2014
"Hawaii was beauitful, Japan was enchanting. I think the lesson I will carry with me the most though is what I learned from the Japanese students in Hiroshima. There was so much I never considered regarding war, neclear energy and mostly PEACE."
M.K. Class of 2013
"I travelled to China last year to expand upon my knowledge of the world, and be able to see how life is in other places. I’ve always wanted to travel the world, and China was a great experience to do so. I can only hope Japan brings on the same amount of fun and knowledge as China did."
M.R. Class of 2015
"One of your favorite memories? Dancing in the streets of Shanghai with live music and locals!"
