INTERNATIONAL TRIP:
International Trips occur bi-annually and can be to any country in the world with a focus on Europe, Asia, or Central/South America. These trips are to provide students with international travel experience and provide a supplemental educational and social learning experience. Trips are all done with the help of a tour guide group and sometimes the trips can be combined with other Deaf schools in the nation. All RMDS High school students are welcome to join these international trips with the understanding that they remain in good academic standing and participate in fundraising to help earn funds for the trip.
June 2023: To Be Determined
CLOSE UP:
Close Up is a week-long program in Washington D.C that allows students to come together from all across the nation to learn more about their rights and responsibilities as a U.S. citizen. During this program, students participate in multiple programs, such as workshops and debates, and get the chance to explore the ins and outs of Washington D.C., such as all the memorials and see Congress in action. The students will have the opportunity to participate in “Deaf Week” with many other deaf school participants during the first week of May. This program is for Juniors and Seniors at RMDS who are in good academic standing.
