South Middle School students returned this week from the Living Classroom, the annual spring break trip to Florida sponsored by Mr. Jason Weaver, seventh grade social studies teacher.
"The first time I did the spring break trip to Disney World in Florida four years ago was a way for the students to get out of the room and learn some real world experience while having some fun and getting to know each other better," Mr. Weaver said.
"The kids usually behave on the way there and back finding a way to keep themselves entertained by playing cards, talking amongst themselves, not getting on the driver's nerves, or my personal favorite, sleeping."
In addition to the educational aspects of the trip, Mr. Weaver says the student enjoy the rides. "Most students do go on the rides there, but a few don't which is O. K. as long as everyone has fun while they are there," said Mr. Weaver.
Students who have gone on the trip in past years said it was fun and they would like to go again, given a chance. Most of them wish it had been longer than one week. Time really does fly when you're having fun in the sun.
