Strake Jesuit Japan Tour 2019

Who: Ten students and two faculty—Mr. Kubiak and Dr. Maier of the English Department
     We are especially seeking students with sincere interest in Japan and Japanese culture.
     Students must be US citizens, and must not speak Japanese as their primary language.

What: Seven to ten days touring Japan. A draft itinerary is below that articulates major sights
      and events, but final details are still in the works and will be shared with the ten
      students and families in January.

When: We travel during Spring Break 2019. Exact dates are still being determined, but students
      should be prepared to leave on Friday, March 9, and return as late as Sunday, March 17.
      We do need to complete an application process soon because of the unique timing of
      this opportunity. Applications are due January 7, 2019.

Next steps:

       Students and parents should review all of the materials attached below.
             1. Brochure for the GEN-J Tours initiative.
             2. Draft itinerary for our tour.
             3. The Strake Jesuit student travel handbook and agreements.

       If you feel confident that you’d like to take this trip with us, prepare to apply online
       before January 7. Here are the application questions that you should prepare:

               Short Answers
                  • What foreign languages do you speak, and to what degree of proficiency?
                  • What was your first language learned as a child?
                  • What is your primary language spoken at home?
                  • What countries have you visited outside the USA?
                  • Can you commit to travel for the entire Spring Break, from Friday March
                      9 through Sunday March 17?
                  • Do you already have a passport valid through end of March, 2019?
                  • Do you have any particular connection to Japan? (Examples might include
                      Japanese heritage; membership in the Japan Foundation or JASH; past
                      experience living in Japan or hosting Japanese visitors; parents'

professional connections to Japan, like working for or working closely
               with a Japanese company.)
           •   Please name a Strake Jesuit faculty member who knows you well and
               could recommend you for this trip.

       “Essays” (not more than 500 words)
           • Describe your special interests, sports, hobbies, clubs, and/or leadership
              experience.
           • What interests you about Japan? What do you want to see, learn, or do in
              Japan?
           • Why would you be a good representative of the Strake Jesuit community
              and broader human community?
           • Why do you think it is important for Americans to learn about Japan and
              Japanese Companies in the United States?
           • If you traveled to Japan on this trip, how could you share the experience
              with others when you return?

You can apply online at this link: https://goo.gl/forms/vpxgL5ihKb1KJXhd2.
Students will need to be logged into their Strake Jesuit Google accounts.
Parents should be nearby to electronically sign the student’s application.

This process is a true application. While we would love to bring all interested students,
space will not allow it. We will prioritize students with a sincere interest in Japan and in
this tour, and students with a proven record of constructive leadership and positive
contributions to their community, but unfortunately, there will be some qualified
students who simply cannot attend. Strake Jesuit will continue to seek other future tour
opportunities like this one.

If you do not already have a passport, we encourage you to apply for a passport ASAP,
even though your spot on the tour cannot be confirmed until middle January.

We will notify students of their status on or before January 11, 2019. All participating
students, with at least one parent, will attend an evening meeting during the week of
January 21, exact time still to be determined.

If you have questions about the application process or the tour, please email Dr. Maier
(mmaier@strakejesuit.org), Mr. Kubiak (kkubiak@strakejesuit.org), and Mr. Fahy
(jfahy@strakejesuit.org).

Note about cost. The enclosed brochure mentions that the following are included—
airfare, hotels, ground transportation, most meals, admission fees on the ground in
Japan, and travel insurance. However, some families have asked what other costs might
arise. As of today, December 22, our understanding is that students will only need
"spending money" for things like snacks, an occasional casual meal, souvenirs, etc. How
much to plan for is partly dependent on his spending habits and your family's spending
goals. We estimate that $25/day is enough for most needs, while $100/day would be
superabundant. We are confirming this understanding with the Japan-America Society,
and invite you to apply at this point. You will be able to assess costs more fully before
you finally commit to the trip.

“GO FORTH”
A Handbook for Student Travel

             Strake Jesuit College Preparatory
                                    2017–2018
Purpose and Mission
     Strake Jesuit students are invited to travel to destinations inside and outside the USA in furtherance of
     the school’s mission to assist young men in their formation as leaders and as Men for Others through a
     program of rigorous college preparation in the tradition of the Society of Jesus. Each of these trips, in
     their own way, aid students in becoming Open to Growth, Intellectually Competent, Religious, Loving,
     Committed to Doing Justice, and/or Physically Fit.

     Various travel opportunities may be available to students in several categories, including
        • pilgrimage and retreats
        • cultural education and formation
        • service and mission trips
        • travel as part of a for-credit class

Structure
     The Strake Jesuit Student Travel Program is a student activity that falls under the Student Affairs area
     of the school. The Assistant Principal for Student Affairs provides the primary administrative support
     for this program. The Student Travel Coordinator reports to the AP for Student Affairs and is primarily
     responsible for coordinating the various trips and providing support to the faculty and staff leaders and
     chaperones participating in these trips.

About These Documents
     The following guidelines are prepared for Strake Jesuit students and families considering participation
     in a school travel opportunity. Faculty and staff can also use these guidelines and questions when
     planning, preparing, and executing a student trip. These pages outline many of the procedures and
     practices that Jesuit seeks to install around these travel opportunities. However, because every trip is
     different, it is essential that this document serve as one part of the trip preparation process. Frequent
     conversation between school administrators, trip leaders, chaperones, parents, and students, is key to
     a successful trip.
Student and Family: General Process for Travel
     Most of these steps are outlined in greater details on coming pages.

        •   Faculty and staff members design a trip and apply for school approval

        •   Trip Leaders organize at least one informational meeting, plus provide other publicity for
            students and families to begin creating a community of potential travelers

        •   Before confirming travel, Trip Leaders distribute a “Go Forth” handbook to interested students
            and families

        •   In most cases, students will apply to join trips or travel programs

        •   Before paying for and registering to travel, parents and students will agree to the terms of the
            trip on the enclosed forms, providing permission and commitment for their sons to travel

        •   Applications are reviewed by trip leaders and school administrators for approval

        •   Parents register their son and begin to make payments with our travel partner companies

        •   Once all travelers are confirmed, at least one group travel meeting will be held to confirm
            further details

        •   During travel, Trip Leader and other chaperones will regularly update parents and school
            administrations about trip progress
Issues for Parents to Consider
There is always a great deal of excitement around the opportunities a trip presents. Some other more
challenging issues may not rise to your consciousness immediately. This list is an effort to identify some
challenging but important topics to consider before traveling. Students and parents should talk about each of
these items.

   •   The student will be traveling without his parents, and will spend some of his time without direct
       supervision. Is he ready for the greater independence that this trip may provide? Will he feel home-
       sick? Is he able to manage himself safely with the degree of adult supervision that the trip includes?
       Does he have the skills to reconnect with the group if he is separated?

   •   There is more “at stake” while abroad than while at home. For instance, legal systems and healthcare
       systems vary greatly around the world, and legal or medical trouble will be harder to resolve than
       when at home. Is the student ready for that greater degree of responsibility?

   •   Students live in close quarters while traveling, and chaperones cannot spend undue time or energy on
       student discipline or group cohesion issues. The best travelers will be students who have internalized
       important moral lessons about their interactions with other students and faculty—students who are
       kind, friendly, easy to work with, obedient, and careful with others. Does this describe the student?

   •   While traveling, variations in cultural practices and norms may present some discomfort. Your son may
       see or experience things while traveling that he sees rarely at home. There may be political, ethnic, or
       religious tensions that are unfamiliar. There may be family structures or parenting practices that seem
       odd or inappropriate. Are you aware of the variations you can expect on this trip? Is the student
       prepared for these?

   •   Some of these variations may present moral temptations that the student does not face at home. For
       instance, alcohol and drugs may be legal for him to use at his destination, and may be easy to find.
       Practices around modest dress or public displays of affection may vary. Discuss these variations.
       Students, have you internalized the moral expectations that your parents and school have for you?

   •   Certain kinds of risky behaviors are especially dangerous while traveling. Chaperones and families are
       more able to respond to injury or illness at home, and potentially less so in a distant country. Students
       should be especially careful with their health and bodily welfare. Talk about avoiding risk. Talk about
       behaviors that may result in illness, hospitalization, or accident.

   •   The same is true about legal matters. While home in Texas, you can be relatively assured of
       predictable, fair, and accessible legal procedures. This is not always true when traveling. For this
       reason, students should carefully know the laws of the place they are in, and be very conservative in
       avoiding violations of the law. Chaperones will present students with any unique or important
       variations before traveling, and students should know that violating laws in other places can be cause
       for disciplinary action, including removal from the trip. Students, are you prepared for this?
Questions for Parents to Ask Trip Planners and Chaperones
  Parents should expect that trip planners will provide a detailed itinerary and all of the relevant information
  from our travel partner companies. However, there are invariably other questions that have not been
  considered in those documents. You might consider talking about these issues with your Trip Planner.

     •   How will I be in contact with my son, in both casual and urgent times? Should I consider an
         international phone plan for him? Will he have regular internet access?

     •   Remember that all trips will include moments of considerable freedom. What are the anticipated
         freedoms and supervision level of this particular trip?

     •   How will living arrangements be decided while traveling?

     •   What are some of the cultural variations you expect to see on this trip?

Unanticipated Travel Home
     Sometimes situations arise that cause a student to be dismissed from a trip, or otherwise face an
     urgent need to fly home. These plans can usually be arranged through our tour providers or a travel
     agency. Families are responsible for the entire costs of such travel.

     Generally, students flying home alone or in small groups will be unaccompanied by chaperones, who
     are needed on the trip to supervise the remaining students. Most airlines provide a service known as
     the “Unaccompanied Minor Service” for students under age 18. Students flying with Unaccompanied
     Minor status will be given special escort through the airports and flights back to their parents in
     Houston. Families are responsible for the costs of such services.

Trip Insurance
     Travel insurance is required for all international travel, and encouraged for all domestic travel. Travel
     insurance must include primary emergency medical benefits, and emergency medical transportation
     benefits.

     Families are strongly encouraged to consider trip cancellation and trip interruption benefits, travel
     delay benefits, baggage loss or damage benefits, baggage delay benefits, and missed connection
     benefits. A rider that provides “cancel for any reason” overage is especially valuable. This can protect
     you against unanticipated issues that prevent you from traveling.
Student Conduct when Traveling
Students traveling abroad are expected to abide by all of the standards in Community Life.

Here are some particular notes that are unique to the situations faced while traveling:

       While traveling, students are likely to encounter legal and cultural variations around alcohol, tobacco,
       and drug use. Students are expected to abstain from alcohol, tobacco, and drugs, even when they are
       in places where alcohol or drug use is legal, widely accepted, or common.

       Travelers may be living in close quarters with each other. Proximity, private spaces, and a large amount
       of shared time can create unique issues. For instance:

              Living spaces are generally meant for the private and restful use of their residents. For instance,
              students should not be in others' hotel rooms. Chaperones will carefully articulate the meaning
              of this standard based on the actual living conditions on your trip.

              Students should respect the private space and time of your roommates. Sharing a home, hostel,
              or hotel room will be more challenging than simply attending school together, and you will
              need to show greater sensitivity to others' desires for privacy and interaction.

              Chaperones have access to student spaces at any time and for any reason, and will visit
              students’ quarters throughout the trip for the sake of presence and awareness.

              Travel experiences can be profound. It's easy to form meaningful relationships in that setting.
              However, remember that you are traveling in a group, and should avoid exclusive relationships
              or cliques. Also avoid romantic relationships with fellow travelers, and abide by the standard of
              chastity in your behavior.

       Students who act recklessly may be sent home for their safety and that of the group. This includes
       students who show disregard for the laws and norms of the country they visit, and students who take
       risks with their bodily safety or well-being.

       While traveling, chaperones will maintain fair and effective procedures. Chaperones may remove
       students from activities or events as needed. Chaperones should freely and readily contact parents
       with disciplinary matters, and parents are expected to help correct their child's behavior. Chaperones
       should enlist the help of the Dean of Students when disciplinary issues arise. Families and students
       should be aware that all disciplinary infractions while traveling open the possibility of a student being
       sent home. In this case, families are responsible for all additional costs, and there are no refunds for his
       original travel.
Student Eligibility for Travel
      All students are required to apply for travel before registering or paying.

             Applications will be approved by the host faculty member, Strake Jesuit administrators, and for
             students from other schools, administrators from their own school.

             N.B. Trips that are part of an athletic or other competitive schedule, and trips for required
             school retreats, do not always require the same application process. Follow the instructions of
             your coach or moderator.

      Students are responsible for their own calendar. Check the calendar of your other student activities,
      sports teams, etc., before applying to travel.

      Students must remain academically eligible in order to travel.

      Students on disciplinary probation or with other significant disciplinary history may have their
      applications denied. Even students with a history of small disciplinary issues may be denied the
      privilege of travel because of the anticipated risk to the trip’s cohesion and stability.

      Sometimes, new information will cause the school to cancel students’ permission to travel. For
      instance, a student may become academically ineligible or be placed on disciplinary probation.
      Students should do their best to avoid these situations. Families continue to be responsible for all the
      costs of travel, even if the school rescinds permission to travel.

is able to make this trip safely and in accordance with the standards and procedures in Community Life, and in
the “Go Forth” handbook.

I consent for the student to represent Strake Jesuit and participate in the trip described above, including
traveling with chaperones designated by the school, and including all events and activities that constitute this
trip.

In the event of an injury, illness or other medical emergency, I authorize Strake Jesuit or a representative of
the school’s administration to act as my agent and/or attorney-in-fact, and further authorize and consent to
any and all medical treatment and assistance by a doctor, dentist, hospital, or other medical facility or
qualified person as the school or its representative deems necessary or appropriate. Any person or facility
