Boston Bound: A Time-Traveling Adventure

From the mysteries of the Salem Witch Trials to the birth of the Revolutionary War, we’ll walk the path Paul Revere tread, explore world-class museums, and step onto the hallowed grounds of Fenway Park. We’ll also spend a full day in Cambridge exploring Harvard’s historic campus and MIT’s cutting-edge labs, seeing how past innovation shapes the future, and then testing our brain power against a challenging escape room. In the evening, we can relax with a hotel pool party while we reflect on the lessons we have learned that day. 

Students will get a true taste of city living - learning to navigate historic neighborhoods, sampling local food, and riding the "T" like real locals with their own subway passes! Bring your walking shoes, be ready for some funny weather, and get ready to dive into the history, culture, and energy of one of America’s most famous cities! 

Educational Goals:

  1. Discover the secrets of Boston's past by walking through 400 years of history.

  2. Analyze the perspective of Bostonians across different time periods to see how a small colonial town exploded into the modern city it is today.

  3. Experience the range of ways Boston continues to inspire, from legendary sports to vibrant art museums, cutting-edge research universities, and more.
