The Close-Up Program in Washington, DC has been a memorable part of the STA experience for generations, and is a great way to learn about government in a fun environment. Students will depart on Sunday, March 11 and return on Friday, March 16. Informational meetings will be set up during the first semester so parents and students can learn more about the program. Funds may be available for students to help defray the cost of the trip

Families interested in enrolling their students in grades 10-12 in the Close-Up trip during Spring Break should contact Mr. Dean Simmons at dsimmons@cadets.com.

Scholarship assistance is available for interested families with financial need - contact Mr. Mike Sjoberg at msjoberg@cadets.com for information about scholarships.
