"Attention Juniors and Seniors that are currently signed up for the EF trip to Portugal and Spain in the summer of 2024. There is a scholarship opportunity available that can help with covering the costs of your trip through an application process with Ms. Haynes. The application for this scholarship is due no later than Friday, November 17th. For more information or if you have any questions, see Ms. Haynes for more details before the deadline."
The EWA High School Social Studies Department is planning a field trip to Washington, D.C. over our Fall 2024 Track-out. As one of the most historically significant cities in the United States, our nation’s capital is an endless source of educational opportunities. Students gain insight into our democracy while watching the three branches of government in action on a class trip to Washington, DC. From America’s highest institutions of government, to its most treasured monuments, memorials and museums, this tour has something for everyone. If you are interested in going please scan one of the QR codes that are posted around the building and complete the Google Form by Friday, December 1st. See Mrs. E.Massey if you have any questions.
