Dear Madrona community,

As many of you know, there is a long standing travel opportunity for middle school students that we run every two years through Explorica, a student-focused travel company. Our upcoming 12 day Middle School Trip to Italy and Croatia for 2021 has been postponed, since students’ safety will always be our top priority. We are so appreciative of our families and travelers understanding and flexibility about our need to shift plans, and we understand how difficult it is for families to plan anything right now also.

We just wanted to communicate that our new travel dates are June 29, 2022 – July 12, 2022, and because of the need to postpone our trip by one year, we are off of Madrona’s typical schedule of a trip every two years.

This means that if you are a family with a current 6th or 7th grader who would like to more information about this opportunity, please contact Hillary Hubacker HubackerH@edmonds.wednet.edu (Middle School DHH teacher) or Amy Johnson JohnsonAM@edmonds.wednet.edu (Intermediate teacher in the Renaissance center) for a quote or itinerary, and look for more details about informational meetings coming in 2021. Thanks again to our Madrona community.
