How to Plan an Educational Trip for High School Students to Europe
Enhance students‘education by offering travel excursions to Europe or other destinations.Before you begin，peruse your school district’s policy regarding international travel.If your district does not endorse travel with students，you must ensure that parents and students understand that the district does not endorse international travel and that you are organizing the trip as an independent consultant.Also，secure a venue large enough to hold meetings for students and parents.Check with libraries，county park buildings or club houses for possible meeting venues.
Instructions——Preparation
1.Choose an educational travel group that promotes student travel.Request to have only one contact person for all aspects of the trip in the event there are difficulties with flights，hotel arrangements，or itineraries.Decide on a destination，dates and length of travel and itinerary before you promote the trip.
2Compose a letter to parents or guardians of students that provides the value of the trip，tentative travel dates，contact information and the time and date of the first information meeting，which should be at least 8 months before the departure date.
