I am inviting you to join me in 2014 for some amazing trips! SCLA is about understanding other cultures, stepping outside your comfort zone and helping others. These trips take what we learn in the classroom and bring it to life. Although our trips are OPTIONAL, I work hard to bring you this experience because I know the benefit of travel for our students. As a mother, I saw the difference in my son after our trip to China this past summer. These experiences are also wonderful to use for college essays to help our SCLAers set themselves apart in the college application process.</div>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 12.222222328186035px;">
PARENTS and SIBLINGS are welcome on these trips as well!!!</div>

<div style="color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 12.222222328186035px;">
This meeting will have all the details of the trips, costs, payment plans and details. I will also offer a $100 discount drawing for both the Costa Rica trip and the Peru trip for anyone who signs up before the meeting or at the meeting. </div>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 12.222222328186035px;">
As traveling internationally is an optional activity, I choose to travel with EF tours, as they have been around forever and take really good care of us. One of the EF representatives will be at our meeting to answer questions about cost, monthly payment plans, insurance and any other concerns you may have.</div>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 12.222222328186035px;">
If you see a trip you KNOW you want to join, there is a special now that cuts $100 off if you sign up before March 31. If you would like more information, please contact Ms. Adams right away. </div>
