    TCA Arshag Dickranian School Junior Students Visit

    New York, Washington D.C. and Philadelphia



    Los Angeles, May 13, 2013 - On April 23rd, eighth and ninth grade
    students went on a 5 day educational trip to visit historical sites around
    the United States escorted by their English teacher Mr. Pascal Nittis and
    eight parents. The trip was organized by school parent Ms. Shoushan Vanoyan
    from Econo Travel.

    The students made their first stop in New York where they spent 2 days
    visiting the famous Time Square, Empire State Building, the Statue of
    Liberty, the Financial District and 5th Avenue. On the following day, April
    24, the students visited St. Vartan Armenian Church where they attended a
    full service dedicated to the commemoration of the victims of the Armenian
    Genocide. Following service, students visited Ground Zero where they also
    paid their respects to the victims of 9/11.

    On April 25, students boarded a tour bus and headed to Philadelphia, where
    they spent the hours of the morning visiting the Liberty Bell, Independence
    Hall and Benjamin Franklin's grave. They then stopped by a restaurant and
    enjoyed a hearty meal of Philly steak sandwich. The students then boarded
    their buses again to continue their trip to Washington D.C. where they
    spent three days site-seeing historical parts of the city, such as Capitol
    Hill, the White House, the Washington Monument, the Lincoln Memorial, the
    Korean War Memorial, the WWII Memorial, the Air and Space Museum and the
    Natural History Museum which are both a part of the Smithsonian
    museums. Moreover,
    the students visited the site preserved for "The Armenian Genocide Museum
    of America". The students also got the opportunity to visit Georgetown
    which allowed them to acquaint themselves with the possibility of attending
    Georgetown University some day.

    Upon their return to Los Angeles on Sunday, April 28, the students found
    their 5 day long excursion very enjoyable and informative, whereas parents
    expressed their high level of satisfaction of the program and the way it
    was organized.

    Dickranian Armenian School is a federally tax exempt, Pre-K to 12th grade
