Today Laurel and 44 other 8th graders from Sam Brannan Middle School began their trip to Washington, DC and New York City. The bus picked them up at school this afternoon. They will leave Sacramento International Airport at about 8:15 tonight, and arrive in DC about 6 a.m. tomorrow. They will hit the ground running, and do a whole day of sightseeing, not checking in to their hotel until after dinner tomorrow night.
Her teacher has given the class an assignment: buy one postcard showing a site they visited, write their thoughts about it, and mail it home - one postcard a day. After Spring Break, they will compile their postcards and any photos they took into a scrapbook, as an extra-credit assignment. Great idea!
