Our ninth graders created their own travel brochures with impressive results! Students designed unique travel companies, trips, and itineraries, stepping into the role of future marketing teams and travel designers. They even set trip prices and considered risks, warnings, and key details. Who knows, we may be looking at some future marketing teams or travel designers in the making!🌎 ✈️ 💙
