Interested in traveling to China in 2016? Students who will be Blue Ridge Governor’s School juniors or seniors in the 2015-16 school year are eligible for this possible venture.

The BRVGS Board authorized a survey to determine interest in this proposed student/teacher trip. If enough interest is shown, and plans meet Board approval, students and teachers will travel to Beijing, Xi'an (site of the Terra Cotta Warriors) and Shanghai over the nine-day period of June 20th through June 28, 2016.

If approved, BRVGS plans to organize several fundraising events in the summer of 2015 and throughout the 2015-16 school year to help students raise money to defray trip costs.   

Director Marc Carraway has emailed the survey to 2015-2016 juniors and seniors, and will present results to the Board. Deadline for responding to the survey is March 27, 2015.  Please feel free to contact Mr. Carraway at  mcarr1@brvgs.k12.va.us  with any questions regarding the proposed trip.
