The Cushman School
TRIP TO PERU
For the 2018-2019 school year, Cushman is offering an exciting educational trip to Peru.
​
This South American country is a thriving melting pot of multiculturalism, shared heritage and fascinating history.
Though every bit of the modernizing country, with a vibrant and cosmopolitan capital full of world renowned gastronomy, art and culture, Peru is also formed of agricultural societies, traditional farming techniques and proud rural communities such as those of Cusco, Puno and the North. The possibilities of learning while traveling around Peru are infinite. It’s a place that was home to some of the most important ancient civilizations.
