Classical Tours Incentive Program

The Paideia Institute is committed to supporting the continuing education and enrichment of Latin and Greek teachers who take their students to Italy and Greece with Paideia Classical Tours.  Through the Classical Tours incentive program, teachers can earn full scholarships for themselves or their students to participate in Padieia's independent summer programs and in a number of programs and conferences offered by our partner organizations.

For more information, visit our Classical Tours Incentive Program webpage.
