Project Passport: Spain 2026 (Grades 7-9) (ACCEPTANCE REQUIRED)

Only scholars that have received notification of their acceptance and who have attended the informational meeting may register for this program. 

Galapagos is excited to announce its fourth Project Passport trip to Spain.  Scholars will travel to Spain and spend a week, during spring break, in one of Spain’s most enchanting cities, Sevilla.   This Project Passport trip is open to all current GRCS 7^th and 8^th graders as well as all alumni currently in 9^th or 10^th grade.   On this journey, scholars will:

• Participate in approximately 3 hours of Spanish language classes a day.  But, don’t worry, these classes are tailored to the scholars’ ability.   Scholars who do not speak Spanish will participate in GRCS only beginning Spanish classes.  Scholars who already speak Spanish will take classes that match their current language ability.
• Explore the wonders of this city that was formed by Muslim, Jewish and Catholic culture and influence.   Highlights include the world-famous Cathedral, Alcazar as well as the largest bull plaza in the world.
• Learn to cook Spanish dishes in a hand-on class.
• Watch world class Flamenco dancers, guitar players and singers.
• Eat wonderful Spanish cuisine.
• And… so much more.
