Easter Trips Feature Tours to New York, France, Switzerland Each year Morton students and teachers employing many means of transportation embark upon a series of in- formative and pleasurable excursions. Whether by train, plane, ship, bus, car, or foot, the travel enthusiasts of our school seek to gain a wider knowledge of the world. This year school-sponsored tours to Washington, D.C., Switzer- land, and Colorado as well as field trips to near-by schools and conventions aided our students and faculty in becoming more aware of the cultures both in the United States and abroad. Also through independent travel, mem- bers of Morton West's faculty and student body gained knowledge to enable them to impart their experiences to the people of their classes during the school year.
