EF Tours Coming to Katy!
We’re pleased to announce that our Seven Lakes JH students have TWO unique international educational travel opportunities! There is limited space on these trips, so I hope you and your child will be able to join us at the upcoming meeting to learn more about this opportunity!
Teachers and students (and parents) will be able to travel across England, France, Germany, Prague, and the Alps OR take a deep dive into Italy (and delicious pasta!) through Milan, Venice, Pisa, Rome, Pompeii and more. Each trip has wonderfully immersive, hands-on activities, as well as interacting with the local cultures
The Parent & Student Info Meeting will be Tuesday, February 18th at 6:30 pm in the Large Group Instruction Room (LGI) at Seven Lakes JH.
