Thirty-eight Tippecanoe Valley High
School seniors traveled to Washington, D.C. last week for their senior
trip. The trip, which in the earlier
years of Valley was just a one-day vacation, has changed. Students spent four days just in Washington,
D.C. They left on Tuesday, April 22nd
and returned on Sunday, April 27th.
During their time in the nation’s capital, the seniors saw various
monuments and visited several historical places.
During their trip, the seniors
visited Gettysburg and Mount Vernon, two well-known historical sites. The students got to walk in George Washington’s
house and on the Gettysburg battlefield.
They also visited the Library of Congress, the U.S. Capitol, and the Smithsonian
Institution. Seniors saw memorials such
as the Washington Monument, the Vietnam Wall, and the Lincoln Memorial. Also, the students got to see a protest and
Vice-President Joe Biden’s motorcade.
