I can't remember how many years grads had been going to Jamaica but I think the class above us was the first to go to Aruba.

(MBHS will not even let "class" trips to foreign countries by Spanish and French classes arrange the trips through them...no idea if that's par for the course for public school systems but I know they've always been particularly careful of distancing themselves from any trips legally. Except athletic events I guess?)
If it's students from the school going and not a group of grads from all over then I think it makes sense to call it a school tradition while acknowledging it's not an official trip.

I went to private school and we took trips that were sanctioned and through tour companies so, I don't know how it works elsewhere.
