Other sites seen included: Ford’s Theater, the Capital, the White House, Smithsonian Museum, National Archives, Holocaust Museum, Arlington National Cemetery and Mount Vernon.
Next year’s trip will be June 2-6, 2009. Five days and four nights will be spent visiting the Civil War battlefields of Manassas, Antietam and one night at the Gettysburg battlefield on a ghost tour.
The trip is open to seventh and eighth grade students.
