PDS families,

Registration is now open for next year’s Cultural Expeditions trips. These signature experiences connect classroom learning with real-world exploration — immersing boys in history, government, and culture in ways no textbook can replicate.

Rising 5th Grade | Washington, D.C.

November 1–6, 2026

Fifth graders will spend five days in the nation’s capital, exploring the institutions, monuments, and history that define American democracy and public life.

Register for the 5th Grade Trip

April 4–8, 2027

Sixth graders will travel the Northeast Corridor, visiting sites that trace the arc of American history — from the birth of the nation through the immigrant experience and the events of September 11.
