We are thrilled to share with you the exciting adventures of our 10th Grade class as they embarked on a journey to the heart of our nation, Washington D.C.! Led by dedicated chaperones and accompanied by enthusiastic parent volunteers, our students set off bright and early on Tuesday, March 19, filled with anticipation for the experiences that awaited them.

James Ugland, a history teacher at PCA who is one of the teachers leading the group, remarked on the significance of the trip: “From the awe-inspiring Marine Corps Museum to the prestigious Capitol Building, where they had the honor of meeting Senator Tim Scott, our students immersed themselves in the rich history and culture of our country's capital. They explored iconic landmarks such as the Museum of the Bible, Pentagon Memorial, and the poignant Holocaust Museum, gaining a deeper understanding of our nation's past and present.” 

As the group made their way through the streets of D.C., our students marveled at monuments honoring great leaders like Jefferson, FDR, MLK, and Lincoln, leaving an indelible mark on their hearts and minds. Each day was packed with enriching experiences, from educational tours to delicious meals at local eateries.
