Transformative & Meaningful Experience

Program: Guatemala High School Student Service Trip

I can't say enough about my School the World experience. I went on my first STW trip this past February and was a chaperone for my daughter and other students. I was so impressed with how well-organized and safe the trip was. The STW staff is positive, kind, knowledgable, organized and on top of every aspect of the trip. My daughter and I along with many other students, chaperones, and STW staff were able to make a postive difference in the lives of a needy community in Guatemala and helped to promote education and good will among different cultures. It was wonderful to work alongside community members to build classrooms for students that will impact generations to come. I highly recommend that every parent and child do this trip at least once in their lifetime. My daughter and I will definitely be doing another STW trip in the near future.
