They're back! And sharing all the amazing experiences that they've had in their three week independent projects all around the Yucatan peninsula. Today we had a marathon day of final presentations, where our students shared 40 minutes of their projects with us, a small amount of time considering what they have lived and learned these past few weeks!
Only two days are left in this winter's total immersion program, it's been a pleasure, stay tuned for updates from our closing festival tomorrow and our public forum on Friday!
