Friends Of Rogers School

Rogers Elementary School is a high performing neighborhood school on the northside of Chicago. There are 36 different languages spoken at Rogers and 70% of our students fall into the low-income category. The graduating class of 2023 has been fundraising to attend a learning field trip to Washington DC. We have 40 students interested in attending this field trip. For many of our students this will be the first time they travel on an airplane, leave the state of Illinois, or get to experience and learn about so many significant and historical places. For many of these students, this will be their last experience with Rogers School before heading off to one of the many Chicago High Schools. This trip is taking place May 3-6 and the tour company has designed a very packed schedule so that these students can experience as much as possible. This trip will cost each student $1150.00. If you are in a position to help get these students to Washington DC, I can assure you that this group of amazing kids will make the most of it. If you are not in a position to donate please help spread the word and share with others. Thank you for your consideration.
