Field Studies & Educational Adventures
At St. Genevieve Catholic School, learning goes far beyond the classroom walls. Through thoughtfully planned field studies, students experience hands-on learning that brings academic subjects—and their faith—vividly to life. These trips are more than just outings; they are opportunities to explore God’s world, build relationships, and develop leadership and independence.
