Julie Trahan’s AP French class from Plainwell High School took a trip to Canada. They visited Toronto, Quebec City and Montreal. A few highlights included the students visiting Notre Dame Basilica of Montreal, Montmorency Falls (tallest in North America) and a few even tried sledding in front of the Chateau Frontenac Hotel (which has been running since 1884). It was a phenomenal trip and amazing experience for these AP students. Special thanks to Mr. Fitz, Ms. Wingle and Ms. Trahan for making this experience possible for our students!
