Lisbon – Students, parents and teachers at Lisbon High School (LHS) have aspirations for an international educational experience to study the artists of France and Spain in April 2016. The newly formed student group, Lisbon Explorers, meets on a regular basis to chart the progress on fundraiser endeavors and trip timelines. “The tour meets Lisbon’s Education Objectives,” shares LHS Art Teacher and trip leader, Pam Ouellette. The mission of the Lisbon School Department is to provide a personalized, innovative education for all learners in an ever-changing world. In Lisbon, the goal is to provide valuable education experiences that cross all disciplines and bring subject, people, places and events to life.
