During the Washington, D.C trip, the Middle School students of Ile Omode had a great time! Even though it was awesome, it couldn’t have been possible without some very special people.
The students, parents, and staff members of Ile Omode would like to thank everyone who donated to our trip. Special thanks to the students’ parents, the Lumpkins (who donated $500), Mama Kelly (for donating her time to help make reservations), and the chaperones. Thanks to all of you, we had a great trip! Thank You,
Zenzile & students

The middle school students at Ile Omode went on an educational field trip to our nation's
capital from April 5-9. The trip gave students a chance to tour historic sites, visit colleges, and meet some exciting people and companies. After returning the students wrote about their experiences, assembled the website you're viewing now, and edited video and photos from their trip. We hope you enjoy the website, and if interested we
would love your support for our trip to Atlanta in 2010! Student Articles |

 The Smithsonian Museum is located in Washington, D.C. and was great. It was huge and the building on the outside made me speechless. Inside it was even better, we didn’t even have to pay. My class and I started at the best exhibit. It had animals from the times of B.C. [Disappointing African Art Museum - Senay] |
