Learning Journeys Program

Learning Journeys are educational field trips for all MPS students. The goal of each Learning Journey is to put content-based instruction into practice that enables students to develop skills not only for academics but also for professional development. Each Learning Journey implements a curriculum and instruction (C&I) framework and an academic and career planning (ACP) framework to ensure that students develop college and career readiness skill sets. The C&I framework provides standards-aligned instructional materials for teachers at each grade level. The ACP framework emphasizes holistic learning objectives in career awareness (K3–grade 3), career exploration (grades 4–8), and career planning and preparation (grades 9–12). 

All transportation and admission fees are arranged and paid for on behalf of schools by MPS Central Services. All Milwaukee County and MPS COVID-19 protocols and mask mandates are to be followed for onsite programming as though students were in the classroom.  All schools and all students are expected to participate.
