Students and Parents Visit Washington, D.C. and NYC

5th and 6th Grade CCATS students and their parents had the opportunity to travel to Washington, D.C. and NYC in March.  The group flew to D.C. where they visited many monuments and memorials, The White House, The Capitol Building, Arlington National Cemetery, The National Cathedral, Mt. Vernon, and many other points of interest.  The group continued their trip by enjoying two days in the Big Apple, NYC.  The group saw the awarding winning Broadway Musical, "Wicked", toured Central Park, and went to the top of Rockefeller Center.  They also enjoyed a water taxi ride around Liberty and Ellis Islands and visited the 911 Memorial.  It was a wonderful opportunity for all that traveled.
