Join classmates and teachers as we explore beautiful Costa Rica: the language, people, culture and biodiversity.  This nine-day trip takes us to Tortuguero on the Caribbean coast, Arenal Volcano, and Manuel Antonio National Park on the Pacific Coast.  Activities include boat tours with a naturalist, zip lining, hikes to waterfalls, swimming in the ocean and natural thermal pools, seeing wildlife close-up, and interacting with local people.  While you will be immersed in Spanish, there is no language requirement and the trip is open to all students. Trip dates: April 3 – 11, 2020.   Watch for upcoming student meetings at lunch and an informational parent meeting.  Please contact Señora Losada with questions:  llosada@stfrancishs.org.
