​Traveling to Japan

This year, District 25 students will travel to Japan from June 16, 2019 - June 27, 2019. We are able to take a total of 12 students on this trip. Three staff will serve as chaperones and students will be paired up to stay with host families in Japan.

​If you are considering sending your child, please also consider hosting a student in your home in May. The communities we visit in Japan are small and the students will see each other. We have had some students stay with the family of the same student they hosted here in Arlington Heights. Students who have both hosted and traveled have found that the two experiences are not isolated, but rather complement each other nicely.


Cost of the Trip: $3,100.00
Additional Expenses:spending money in airports, money to purchase souvenirs while in Japan.
2/15/19 - Registration Closes
