Student Trip Blog

Welcome and History

Today was our first full day of the Program. We are so proud of our Glimpsers for making the trip all the way here to the Dominican Republic!

Despite going to bed at 5 am this morning, our Glimpsers were up and ready for a day of orientation. We played a game of charades to help them learn and understand the rules and expectations of Global Glimpse, and I can say that I’m thoroughly impressed with our students’ acting skills.

The students are super excited for tomorrow’s Global Business theme, as we will be spending the day at Impacta Kids. Stay tuned tomorrow to hear about our day of baseball training.

This is amazing. I’m not too surprised if you did not get any sleep since 5 am is your normal. Proud of all of you. Enjoy ??
