Global Delbarton, a menu of travel and cultural exchange options, is a unique signature aspect of the Delbarton experience. In fact, it is the rare student who hasn't experienced at least one off-campus travel experience by the time he has moved on to college. This summer's options include travel adventures, exchanges, a service mission, and a sports team experience.
Eighty-seven students and fourteen teachers are attending trips abroad with Delbarton during Summer 2024. Director of Global Programs Dan Pieraccini (who will accompany a group to Italy this Friday) recently wrote to his faculty colleagues, "I welcome you to wish them safe travels, and catch up with them when they return to hear more about their incredible experiences."
