Yesterday was Earth Day, but aboard Class Afloat, every day is a reminder of our home on this pale blue dot 🌍

As we sail across the ocean, explore busy cities, quiet coastlines, industrial ports, and remote villages, our students don’t just learn about the world - they live in it. From coral reefs to concrete jungles, they witness the beauty, the challenges, and the responsibility we all share. 🌱 

The Class Afloat journey shapes not only a student’s education, but the kind of global citizens they become - curious, conscious, and committed to a better future 💙

Year after year, we scroll through our alumni’s Earth Day posts 📸 and relish the memories we made on board together. WE SEE YOU alumni 👀, and we thank you for sharing our strong commitment and social responsibility to this pale blue dot 🌎 

And more importantly, THANK YOU EARTH 🙏
