[quote=Anonymous]Yes, but it depends on the school and the teachers. The trips are not organized by MCPS. They are all offered by private companies who partner with teachers, and then the teacher becomes the "spokesperson" at that school. Some teachers are more enthusiastic about it than others, and a lot refuse to participate, which is why there may not be trips every year for every language. Personally, I'm not spending thousands of dollars so my kid can get cultural and language exposure in another country. If we travel, we all go together. I can organize trips with my preferred sightseeing, food and lodgings, and avoid the hefty commission to a for-profit organization. [/quote]
