The GACS Study Abroad program will tour London, Paris, Germany, and Switzerland during Spring Break 2011.  Study Abroad provides high school students a unique opportunity to earn academic credit while traveling in foreign countries. Not only does the trip afford students rich cultural experiences, but the trip also makes an impressive addition to a student’s college resume.

For many students, their study abroad experience is the highlight of their high school years.  In fact, when the 2008 Student Body Co-President Alan Blinder was asked at Homecoming what was the highlight of his high school experience, he immediately replied, “My trip to China.”  Alan traveled to both China and Thailand with the GACS Study Abroad program.
