MTEC had the opportunity to take a group of 16 students to Washington, D.C. in April 2019. This trip turned out to be a true learning experience for our youth involved in the teen center. Not only did they experience our country’s history, but they also had the opportunity to speak with Massachusetts’ government officials and learn how their voice has an impact in Washington.
We had the opportunity to Visit :
9/11 Memorial
Air Force Memorial
Arlington National Cemetery
Embassy Row
