Registration Underway for 2026 Upper School Spring Break Trip to Ecuador

After wrapping up an exciting Spring Break trip to France, NSA's World Language Department is already planning the next travel opportunity for Upper School students, which will take them to Ecuador in 2026!

Registration is underway for the nine-day trip, which will take place from February 26, 2026 to March 7, 2026. This opportunity is open to all rising ninth through 12th grade students. You do not need to take a Spanish class to register.

"Students will be visiting two of the four regions of Ecuador," said Upper School Spanish instructor Margarita Castillo, who grew up in Ecuador and will be sponsoring the trip. "We will visit the Amazon and the Andes, where we will explore the historic streets of the capital, Quito, and stand in the middle of the world monument. They'll soak in a volcanic hot spring and go water rafting in the Napo River in the Amazon."

Please visit NSA's Explorica page to sign up for the trip and view the full itinerary. There is an early bird discount for students who register by April 11, 2025. If you have any questions about the trip, please contact Ms. Castillo at mcastillo@nsacademy.org.
