THE TRIP
Students spend their week abroad participating in the final stages of the school construction. Throughout the week, students begin to open their eyes and minds to the deep and complicated causes underlying poverty. In addition to finishing building the school, students get to partake in cultural immersion activities such as shadowing a family in the community and outdoor adventures! You can also expect to form genuine relationships among your peers and the children in the community!

“It inspired me to be more grateful and appreciative of what I have and to think about if what I want is a necessity.”
Charlie Skinner
“The children I met were incredible. They were so kind even as I struggled through my Spanish. I made so many amazing friendships in Panama with the kids and my fellow School the World team members. This is an experience I will never forget. I am eternally grateful to have gotten the opportunity to go on this trip.”
Steph Albert
