Small Normandy Institute at George Washington University. They were one of only fifteen student-teacher teams selected from the United States for this program. Student-teacher teams will travel to Washington, DC, for sessions at George Washington University from June 18-22, followed by a trip to France from June 22-29, 2025. The students and teachers will study online through Zooms and coursework during the spring 2025 semester, followed by their summer travel. They will visit important sites in DC while also learning on the George Washington campus, followed by in-depth learning experiences in Bayeux, Normandy, and Paris, France. The student-teacher team will also be completing a biography of a World War II soldier and sharing that story with their community and major organizations. The student-teacher team is very excited and honored to begin this program.
