Secondary Center

Wyoming Area history teacher Barbara Bullions and Spanish teacher Christine Marianacci are planning an EF Educational tour of Eastern Europe for summer 2014.

The trip will visit Berlin, Prague, Krakow, Budapest and Vienna. It will also include a tour of the Auschwitz concentration camp in Poland.

Once a student registers for the trip, the price is guaranteed, so for the best possible rates, students are advised to register early. In addition, EF is offering a $100 discount to students who enroll before March 31. A monthly payment plan is available. This will be Mrs. Bullions’ eighth trip through EF Tours. She has previously accompanied students to Great Britain, Italy, France and Spain. A trip to Greece is planned for next summer.
