After a year’s break our students were ready to get out into the real world and see different parts of amazing Indonesia. The “Week Without Walls” was an outstanding success; students were challenged both physically and emotionally. Students experienced many community activities and became involved with people from around the country, in some cases, working alongside them to gain a better understanding of how people live.

Group dynamics plays a big role in education; these trips gave students the opportunity to work in teams to solve problems and to develop new important skills. Most importantly, the trips encouraged students to form strong bonds and relationships with their peers. We were very excited to see the enthusiasm and joy on each student’s face as they accepted the many challenges and experiences they faced.

A big “Thank You” to all of the teachers who worked very hard to ensure that these trips were educationally valuable and exciting for our MSHS students. Also a big “Thank You” to parents who trusted us with their sons and daughters and supported these trips. We are already planning for next year so look through the write-ups on the trips; you might be reading about a place that you will go to in future years.
