Flexible & Reliable Boston K12 Field Trip School Bus and Charter Bus Rentals
Boston is a great destination for a class field trip thanks to its rich history, as well as its reputation as a hotbed for education. The city also has an unusually small area for a major metropolitan area, which means you’ll be able to see a lot without having to drive great distances between attractions.
The benefits of field trips
There is sometimes a debate between whether knowledge gained in a classroom is more or less valuable than knowledge gained from experience. We believe that we can all benefit from a healthy balance of both, and that’s exactly why field trips are so important for students.
Students may start by reading and discussing historical events, landmarks, and attractions in the classroom. But those events, landmarks, and attractions can be difficult for students to imagine without the opportunity to experience them in a tangible way.
Heading out on a field trip is the perfect way for students to connect classroom concepts with tangible artifacts.
