7th Graders Visit Washington DC
For the 5th year, a group of Whitewater Middle School seventh graders travelled to Washington DC to explore our nation's capitol and all it has to offer. Students toured the Capital building, visited the White House and took a bike tour of many of the National Mall memorials and monuments including the Lincoln, Washington, Jefferson, FDR, Vietnam War, Korean War, WWII, Einstein and the newest memorial dedicated to Martin Luther King, Jr. We toured the Holocaust Museum, International Spy Museum, and the Bureau of Printing and Engraving. We were amazed at the incredible Smithsonian museums including the American Indian, Natural History, American History, Air and Space and the National Zoo. We even had time to catch a Washington Nationals game. Our trip concluded on Saturday with a quiet cruise down the Potomac River to George Washington's home at Mt. Vernon. The seventh grade team from Whitewater Middle School would like to thank everyone who has supported this trip and worked so hard to make this opportunity available to our students.
