Day two of the Middle School trip started with breakfast which we had shopped for the previous night. After fueling up, we hit the train and headed for Chicago’s Chinatown. It was a terrific opportunity to look at the positive ways that the immigrant community has impacted this country.
After Chinatown, we let the kids explore Water Tower Place in smaller groups and grabbed lunch. Next, we were off to the Willis Tower and “The Ledge.” What a great way to face a fear of heights! Several of our students challenged themselves to step out onto the glass floor high above the city. It was great to see our students face their fears while being fully supported by their classmates.
Everyone was tired after a full day but but looking forward to “choice museum day” on day three!
