GEEO Teacher Travel Programs

“I will talk about these trips all year in my classes. For so many of my students, my description of my travels will be the only exposure they will have to other countries and other ways of life.”- Social studies teacher Michael Baldwin, whose first time traveling abroad was with GEEO.
