Trips
Field trips are common at the Mirman Lower School. In the Lower School, there are several field trips throughout the year. In Upper School, while daily field trips are scarce, in the fall the 1st year Upper School students do a three day primate and plant study at the Los Angeles Zoo and the County Arboretum as part of the science and anthropology curriculum. The 2nd, 3rd and 4th year students take overnight trips during the week. The 2nd and 3rd year trips stress team building activities. In 2012 the 4th year class visited Washington D.C. During the school year the Upper School students will visit places such as the Getty Villa, and go on local community service trips.

Famous quotes containing the word trips:
“A great proportion of the inhabitants of the Cape are always thus abroad about their teaming on some ocean highway or other, and the history of one of their ordinary trips would cast the Argonautic expedition into the shade.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
