Smart Travel Enrollment Program
Smart Traveler Enrollment Program (STEP) - provided by the US government, this program sends text alerts to parents and students if the State department needs to make contact with US citizens. It also alerts the US Ambassadors in the locations that we are traveling. GSWLA teachers will be participating in this program and it is recommended that students and parents participate as well. The link below will take you to the STEP website!
