ICE/No Barriers Summer 2018 Costa Rica Trip!


The time has come to apply for this summer's Costa Rica trip! This is a scholarship program run by No Barriers, a program that has partnered with ICE to provide opportunities such as the summit trips and the Camp Jewell trip. The scholarship fully covers the cost of the trip, including airfare, meals, a full-time local guide, transportation, activities, etc.** During the 10-day trip, we travel to different areas of the country, such as the Osa Peninsula, Monteverde, and Sarapiqui, engaging with local communities, experiencing the lush biodiversity, and challenging ourselves outside of our comfort zones. Some activities include ziplining, kayaking in the Pacific Ocean, night and day hikes through the rainforest, community service projects, and much more! This summer the Costa Rica trip will run from August 4th through August 13th, 2018. All current 10th and 11th graders are eligible, and the application can be found online. The application is due on March 1st. Please contact Juliana  (6G Humanities, 9G/12G Literature) with any questions, and students are encouraged to drop by room 505 for more information! **If a student is not offered a scholarship, there is an option to pay to attend the trip, given the student's application is accepted.
