Sophomore Planning Junior Year Abroad

Potomac sophomore Carter Donald will spend his junior year in Zaragoza, Spain, through Potomac’s partnership with School Year Abroad. SYA places American high school sophomores, juniors, and seniors in one of four independently operated schools in Italy, France, or Spain for a full academic year. Participating students live with a carefully selected host family and are immersed in the language of their country. SYA Spain is located in Zaragoza, mid-way between Barcelona and Madrid. Students typically take six classes; all but English and math are taught in Spanish. Students must have studied through the second year of a rigorous high school Spanish curriculum to be considered for admission to this program. Ample extracurriculars, including artistic, athletic, or service opportunities, are available to best meet student interests.  We wish him buena suerte as he embarks on his adventure next year!
