Innovative Student Travel
In 1980, Glen Fulton, a dedicated middle school teacher, added field trips to reinforce his classroom lessons. Exciting results validated his field trips as a top learning priority and within two years he founded Curriculum Travel of America, Inc. (CTA). Fulton’s original commitment to exciting, student-involved activities continues today as the CTA benchmark.
