This, what's written below by a few of the students going to D.C., is why we work as hard as we do, why we try to give our students the opportunities to have experiences beyond the walls of North Charleston. This is why we need your help - to make all of this happen for our students. Enjoy getting to know the amazing students we have the privilege to teach!
"I've always wanted to see what's outside of South Carolina and I think this is the perfect opportunity." - Sierra
"Yes, indeed, educating yourself on an historic topic is commendable, but supplementing your knowledge with experience is priceless. That is what makes this trip so valuable. It not only provides me with a chance to cement my understanding of US History, but allows me to gain experience as a traveler." - Aaron
"Not only will I have the opportunity to learn more than I have in class, but finally I'll get to see everything for myself. I'll be able to step foot where the famous Martin Luther King, Jr. made his "I Have a Dream" speech...I'll step foot where history has been made." - Abel
"In my life, I've always push myself to be the best person I be to make my parents proud of me. No one in my family has ever done the things I am doing and I feel like I am carrying on a new lagacy for my family. I want to turn my family's name into something amazing and this is the first step. This is the reason why going to DC is so important to me. It's not just my life that will change, it's my whole family's." - Amon
