GUIDANCE
Adams Country Library
Attention 10th Grade Girls!
First Stamp is a new organization providing a TOTALLY FREE opportunity for 10th grade girls to travel abroad for 2 weeks this summer. EVERYTHING is paid for for those who are selected! Last year, the organization took 20 girls to a trip that included London and Paris. It is chaperoned by masters level educators and includes a two day orientation at Trinity University in Texas.
Traveling abroad can open a teenager's world - I hope many of our students take advantage of this opportunity! There will be a parent / family information session held in the Learning Commons at 7:30pm on October 30th!
