3 days in DC + 2 days in NYC = 5 days of unforgettable memories! 🇺🇸🗽

We took 36 students from John Muir to navigate two of the greatest cities in the world. From the monuments in Washington D.C. to the bright lights of Times Square, watching them learn, grow, and take it all in was the ultimate reward.
