GRADY HIGH SCHOOL & INMAN MIDDLE SCHOOL



  • About
    The Grady HS & Inman MS-Global Education Squad will be traveling to Costa Rica from March 31 to April 7, 2019. As a Global Education Squad the group will partner with an underserved school in the community of Santa Cruz to improve educational outcomes. The group will stay at our private and safe home-base accommodations in Santa Cruz where our local professional staff provide all transportation, food, lodging, and activities. The group will be matched with a local school where they will spend each weekday morning completing valuable small construction projects and classroom support. Each afternoon the group will enjoy guided cultural activities in the surrounding area such as chocolate making, pottery workshop, folkloric dance, and Spanish classes. On the weekend the group will enjoy surf lessons, beachtime, and a zipline adventure!

    3. Once a volunteer is successfully registered on the trip you should see your profile appear on the group initiative page.
