Amazing, innovative and heroic stories take place in Oregon’s schools every day. OSBA wants to share some of the work that shows public education is #OregonStrong. Today we have a story from Malheur Education Service District:A Malheur ESD-sponsored educational tour takes 21 eighth graders to Washington, D.C., and New York City (Facebook)Read more: tinyurl.com/4vyjtjdr #oregonstrong #Oregon #publiceducation #studentsuccess #EducationMatters #malheuresdEighth-Graders Explore the Big Apple and D.C.: A Journey Beyond Malheur CountyVALE – There is a big world outside of Malheur County and a group of local eighth-grade students gained an opportunity to see it recently as part of an educational tour sponsored by the Malheur Education Service District. Twenty-one students journeyed to the east coast over spring break to tour Washington, D.C. and New York City. The tour included seven adults and four days in the nation’s capital and two days in New York City. “We had really great weather and were able to do everything that was on our itinerary,” said Jason Echeverria, Regional ELL specialist for the education service district who led the effort. During the first leg of the trip to Washington, D.C., students and adults visited a host of historic sites such as the Washington National Cathedral, the Smithsonian Air and Space Museum, the White House, the Washington Monument, the U.S. Holocaust Museum, Ford’s Theater, Mount Vernon, Old Town Alexandria and Arlington National Cemetery. In New York, the group visited Times Square, jumped on a New York harbor cruise, completed a walking tour of the financial district, saw the 9/11 Memorial and went on a subway ride. The group also watched the Lion King play on Broadway and visited Central Park and Rockefeller Center. Echeverria said the trip is an excellent way to enlarge the outlook of young students. “I think it is a huge learning experience. A lot of kids have hardly left the state or the Northwest or rarely traveled to a big city,” he said. Preparations for the trip begins with seventh-grade students, said Echeverria. “So, the kids have 14 months to raise money for the trip. Some years we are able to get a big number. Last year we took a group of 38 and for 2027 we actually have 40 signed up,” he said. Once they reach Washington, D.C., they meet with a tour guide, said Echeverria. “They take us around to all of the sites and explain the history. So, students learn a lot about American history,” he said. Echeverria said the “big takeaway is getting them to learn what it is like to travel.” “Malheur County is not the whole world. For them to get to see big east coast cities opens them up to an expanded world view,” said Echeverria. The trip, he said, also includes a lot of walking. “We walk anywhere from seven to ten miles a day even with the tour bus,” he said.Below: More than 20 local eighth-grade students journeyed to Washington, D.C. and New York City over spring break as part of a program sponsored by the Malheur Education Service District. ...
