Travel opportunity
Dear families and students of BFA,
There is still time to join the group of BFA students going to Paris, Normandy, and London in February 2025.
I’m excited to tell you more about the trip we’re planning with EF Tours, our educational travel partner. Any students interested in this trip should be sure to register for an interest meeting during enrichment A on Wednesday, September 25, with Mr. Pollard in room A217.
When students travel, they expand their knowledge of the world around them, discover more about themselves, and grow more confident. These skills are critical for creating the global citizens of tomorrow, and we would love to have your student join us on this adventure.
In this meeting, we’ll talk about the schedule, costs, expectations, and answer any questions.
If you have any questions please feel free to contact me. bpollard@maplerun.org
Students can also talk to me at school.
Thanks,
Bruce Pollard
