We have reserved an optional weekend trip to the Pali Institute in Running Springs the weekend of Friday May 13th - Sunday May 15th, 2022 for Portola HGM 6th-8th graders. This will be a parent-led trip for Portola HGM students and this trip is not sponsored by Portola, LAUSD, or MPA.

The cost is currently estimated between $400-$500, depending on the number of students. The purpose of this form is to gauge the number of students interested in going on the trip.
