Students in Southeast Delco’s Gifted Program enjoyed enriching field trip experiences that connected learning with culture and the arts!
In November, students visited the University of Pennsylvania Archaeology Museum, and in December, they attended The Philadelphia Ballet’s performance of George Balanchine’s “The Nutcracker.”
These memorable trips brought classroom learning to life in meaningful and inspiring ways. 🚌
