AP US History students will be traveling back in time to old Hawaii during their visit to Iolani Palace, the residence of the last Hawaiian monarchs, King Kalakaua and Queen Liliuokalani.  

AP teacher Alex Adkins says the field trip will teach students about imperialism in Hawaii.

“We’ll be exploring the overthrow of the monarchy and how Hawaii developed after its annexation,” said Adkins.

Adkins and counselor Cleo Eubanks will chaperone students.

Eubanks is elated to be visiting the palace.

“I’ve lived in Hawaii all my life and have never been inside Iolani Palace,” she said. “I’m excited to see how well preserved the establishment is!”

The field trip is scheduled for Feb. 11.
