Ethan Students Arrive in DC! This morning, 26 9-12 grade Ethan students, accompanied by two teachers and ten parents, embarked on an exciting educational trip to our nation’s capital…Washington, D.C.! This journey has been two years in the making, as the group has worked hard to fundraise and prepare for this unforgettable experience. Today’s itinerary included visits to the Smithsonian Museum, the WWII Memorial, the Washington Monument, and the 9/11 Pentagon Memorial. The students are already making incredible memories and learning so much about our country’s history. We are proud of their efforts and grateful to everyone who supported their fundraising along the way. The students are having a fantastic time and representing Ethan with pride!
