We had a fantastic trip over spring break 2023, and I would absolutely love for your students to come along and have the opportunity of a lifetime. This is NOT an HCPSS sponsored activity, but rather a private tour, open to the public.*

It is very important that you RSVP with this link if you are coming (or if you just want more info): https://rsvp.eftours.com/x2taasv. * As of May 2017, HCPSS no longer sponsors, sanctions, or oversees any international travel.
