City Kids goes on a field trip in the D.C. metro area every Friday.  Our trips include museums, cultural institutes, theatre, local businesses, science-related trips, and much more.  Often, our field trips are related to what our students are learning in their academic classes, and our students have the chance to deeply engage the material they are learning in the classroom.  Sometimes, the field trips are just for fun, like our yearly trip to a farm where the kids roast marshmallows and compete against their parents in tug of war.  Using the city as our classroom provides our students with a unique perspective on what learning can be.
