Our Panthers are ready to take on the MAP test. They have worked so hard all year and now it's time to shine! We kicked off testing season with a MAP pep rally, encouraging our learners to be confident and to try their best! Bring it on!

Day 5: Our Panthers spent the night in the Rain Forest and completed a service learning activity with "Eye on the Rain Forest ' Their mission is to sustain long term research and education in tropical forest ecology and sustainable forestry. Our Panthers worked hard to support the efforts of this non-profit organization.

The same day, our Panthers visited a fruit farm to learn how they grow their produce. They also took a cooking lesson and learned how to make Mofongo. They got to make their own lunch!

Way to go Panthers!

Day 3: Our students got to enjoy the Caribbean. They played sand volleyball, sand soccer, and buried each other in the sand. They even played catch with a coconut. Our tour guide Cruz, got a coconut from the palm tree and the kids enjoyed 100% organic coconut water!

After the beach, we took a boat ride to Cayo Caracoles where our students got to play with baby crabs, find sea shells and sea urchins, and learn about marine life in PR. We ended our day doing a night swim in the La Parguera Bioluminescent Bay! What a day for the FLA 8th grade Panthers!

Day 2: Our students started the day by eating breakfast by the Caribbean, and then visited PR's 2 biggest city, Ponce. In Ponce, our students got to visit a local school and visited classrooms (we might have 2 future preK teachers in our group! 😊. They had a tour of the city and took salsa lessons. What a joy to see our Panthers experience culture immersion first hand!
