6th Grade Students Head to Washington DC
The RCP 6th grade leadership group have been given the incredible opportunity to go to DC through the program Close Up. The students left on Sunday, June 3, 2017 and stay until Wednesday, June 7, 2017.
Close Up’s Middle School Programs are designed to give students hands-on opportunities to interact with government and history in Washington, DC. Close Up is more than just a tour. It is a fast-paced, fun-filled, and educational experience in one of the world’s most dynamic cities. The staff uses Washington’s key institutions and historic sites as interactive classrooms to help students explore the links between history and the rights and responsibilities of citizens today. https://www.closeup.org/program/middle-school
