RACS Science Olympiad Team Motivation Trip to the Ivy League

Rochester Academy Charter School students visited Yale University on November 13^th.  The Science Olympiad Motivation Trip consisted of numerous visits to the top universities over the weekend. Students started their visit in Boston, MA with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (M.I.T). Students were impressed with the amazing architecture of MIT buildings and the classroom environments.

Right after the visit to MIT, students traveled to Cambridge, MA to see Harvard University. The charming atmosphere at Harvard University positively impacted a lot of students’ desires for getting into top universities. Right after that, students moved into Connecticut to stay overnight in order to visit Yale University in New Haven the next day.

Our guide who is studying for a post-doctorate at Yale University hosted us in New Haven, CT. Students were very impressed with the magnificent look and the environment of one of the Top Universities in the world. The 2-hour walk around the campus made students eager to work hard at RACS to get into these colleges after high school. Our trip ended in the bookstore of Yale University where some students bought gifts for friends and families.
