We'll also be heading to the Tellus Science Center for an immersive experience in geology and astronomy. Our journey continues with a visit to the Fernbank Museum, where students will explore natural history exhibits and marvel at dinosaur displays.

In addition to these exciting tours, we'll be heading to historic Savannah, where students will learn about Georgia's rich history and architecture. Finally, we'll venture into the Okefenokee Swamp for a unique look at its diverse ecosystem and wildlife.
