The Lopez International Student Travel Education Program (InSTEP)
cultivates understanding, enthusiasm and lasting curiosity
about other countries and cultures
by providing Lopez students with opportunities to travel
with teacher-led trips outside the United States.
Following generous private contributions to support this travel,
a group of teachers and interested community members formed InSTEP (originally known as L.I.F.E. – Lopez Island Foreign Exchange)
in 1997 to administer and add to these funds.
