Seneca Valley High School students recently got a firsthand education on Peruvian culture.

Several students and teachers took a nine-day summer trip to Peru, which included stops in Machu Picchu, Cuzco and Lima.

The focus of the visit was to appreciate cultural differences and to gain a better understanding of the Peruvian way of life, past and present, according to Seneca Valley officials.
