Do you have a short trip in American school


Do you have a short trip in American school?
Students in most of elementary, junior high and high school in Japan go traveling which takes 2~7days of a trimester. The destination is usually far away from their school. Some schools plan to visit overseas. Do you have such short-trip-custom in American school? Yes the trip in Japan is also called as an educational trip. :) Although the intention of many students seems to be just to have fun. xD Thanks for posting from Lebanon. :D

Usually not for elementary but it depends on the school. I know a high school here in Arizona that took their seniors to Spain but my high school didn't have a class trip. I think it varies by state/school but some schools do take their students on trips.
