Dear Parents,
I am very excited to announce a terrific trip to France coming up during our summer vacation for interested students and/or their parents. Our expected departure date is July 6 with a return date of July 16. We will be exploring France on an EF educational tour.
During our tour, we will visit many of France’s most famous landmarks, such as Notre Dame Cathedral, the Louvre Museum, Versailles, the D-Day beaches, Mont St. Michel, the Cathedral of Chartres, and a perfume factory on the French Riviera. These are just a taste of the amazing sites your child will have the opportunity to encounter. I can tell you with first-hand knowledge that a trip of this nature opens the mind, and it is a once-in-a-lifetime experience that will become one of your child’s fondest memories.
I have chosen to travel with EF Tours because they have been in business for 40 years and have offices around the world, which makes me feel secure. In addition EF specializes in student tours ensuring me that your child will get a tour geared to your child’s age group that is both fun and educational. Another factor in my choice is that EF guarantees the lowest prices for the highest quality. The cost of this 11 day international trip is $2,680 and includes round-trip airfare, hotel accommodations for 9 nights, a full-time EF Tour director, daily breakfast & dinner, entrance fees to select attractions, guided sight-seeing, and transportation by charter bus or TGV between destination cities.
Please discuss this fantastic opportunity with your son or daughter. Let your child know that these trips are fast-paced and involve lots of travel time and energy, as well as a willingness to embrace a different culture. Space is limited- please act now to reserve your spot!
On the opposite side of this letter you will find the breakdown for the price of the tour, as well as your two payment options. I realize that you will have many questions once you have looked over this information, so I have scheduled a Parent’s Meeting for Monday, November 7, 2005 at 6:00 P.M. in the school library. We will discuss the benefits of taking an educational tour, the details of the tour itinerary, the payment options, and any other questions you may have. We will also have access to the internet in order to get your application process started. If you are interested in using Payment Plan # 2 (see reverse side), please have your credit card with you at that time. (To secure your spot, a $95.00 enrollment fee must be paid at the time of application.)
Once again I am excited about this opportunity, and I look forward to having the chance in further discuss the details with you at Monday night’s meeting.
Sincerely,
Christine Klibert- French Teacher
