Sixth Grade to Exchange City

Each year our sixth grade students go to Exchange City. This year we are going on Friday, 3/6. Students prepare for this field trip for many weeks leading up to the event. Exchange City is an actual simulation of a city where students get to run the entire city and businesses within the city. Students choose professions such as mayor, police officer, bankers, radio dj, food service workers, material distribution, etc. Students get a paycheck and have the opportunity to buy food and souveniers. This is an awesome experience for the kids.
