Our Honors Ethics Class is fundraising for a transformative field trip to Montgomery, Alabama and Atlanta, Georgia.

Landmark High School is a Title I public high school in the heart of New York City. We are fundraising on behalf of Landmark students for a field trip to Alabama & Georgia to enrich our experience in the Honors Ethics Class and its connection to educational inequity. Our field trip will depart in February 2026.

This course is a chance for students to engage in seminar discussions and be exposed to college-level discourse and topics. To enrich this course, our Honors Ethics Class is fundraising for a once-in-a-lifetime field trip to explore museums, memorials, and sites of cultural importance from the Civil Rights Movement and beyond.

Our field trip will take students to Montgomery and Birmingham, AL as well as Atlanta GA. The proceeds from this fundraiser will go directly to flights, museum admission, hotels and meals for students.

A critical city in Civil Rights history, Montgomery Alabama is the home to Bryan Stevenson's National Memorial for Peace and Justice. We will also spend 2 days visiting the Legacy Sites and EJI (Equal Justice Initiative).

Some of our other transformative moments in the itinerary include a visit to the Southern Poverty Law Center’s Civil Rights Memorial and the young Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King’s social justice based church in Atlanta, Georgia. They will also speak with criminal justice lawyers who are working to alleviate conditions for incarcerated youth in Alabama.

Please consider a donation that will make this trip possible for the students at Landmark High School. It is our goal to give students this opportunity to bring the learning from our ethics course to life and bring deeper meaning to our readings and discussions from class.

Thank you for your support!
