Some FAQ’s: 

  1. How many days of school do I have to miss?
    • For the Civil Rights trip, we will leave Friday night and return Monday nights, so you will only miss one day of school (Monday). 
    • For the Border Trip, we will leave Wednesday afternoon and return on Sunday night, so you will miss two days of school (Thursday and Friday). 
  2. Will I have time/be able to do my homework?
    • Yes! The bus rides are long, so you’ll have plenty of time to complete any homework or make-up work necessary! There will also be some downtime at our hotels. 
  3. How much are the trips?
    • The Civil Rights trip is $300, and the Border Trip is $325. Why so much? This covers hotels, bus rides, tickets to any museums/encounters, and food! 
  4. Can I bring a friend who doesn’t attend SMOS?
    • Yes! All are welcome!
