10 days for 4 cities?
Girl, you will not have time for mischief!
When we went to London with school, and with scouting, we stayed with families, took the underground into town for sightseeing and some shopping.
We did see the famous sights, changing the guard at the palace, one of the big churches. A museum or two, tower and tower bridge.
We were given time to go shopping, alone or in little groups, in one of the famous department stores, a flee market and in one of the shopping streets that are world famous. (I do not remember which, it has been a while since.)
With school I also went to a musical and a pub.
Amsterdam would be a daytrip from our school, (just 30 minutes by coach) so we would go for one particular museum and would not go into town, except for that one visit to one of our teachers living in town. Then we went to a movie!
From friends who stayed in hostels or hotels in London and Paris I have heard that the first night they would stay awake and keep everybody else in the place awake too.
Some had to do 'interviews' with locals, asking a bit about daily life and practicing their language knowledge.
All went to see the same things, or when to a different town, like things.
In Paris it would be Louvre, Eiffel tower and a church or two.
When you come round Easter, bring a few sweaters or a fleece as well as a wind and waterproof coat. Most people round here still wear their wintercoats round then but it can be sunny and warm enough for a T-shirt in the middle of the day if you are lucky.
As said, bring money.
Everything is more expensive than you think, and while the school will supply you with 3 meals a day, you will be wanting to get a few snacks as well as souvenirs.
Be smart and do not buy them at the famous sights, but walk into a side street, (if you have the chance) and buy them in a little shop there.
You will find Eiffel tower souvernirs all over Paris, in the shops away from the tower they will be much cheaper, and a better selection too.
You do not write how old you are (on average) so I can not judge how much leeway your teachers will give you, but if you have to stay with your teachers at all times, ask them to go into a supermarket every now and again.
A different experience from an American one, and the best place to stock up with snacks and drinks.

Brussels may be the capital of Belgium and could be the principal seat of the Belgian Royal Family and, also the capital of the European Union and if you wish to know it then this is actually the place hotelbye . Brussels is an incredibly little, easy-going, and human-sized city for all its importance. Unlike anthers city using their millions of tourists, Brussels is Belgium's principal financial and instructional heart, gives the city a more workaday sense than different towns. Here, in Brussels, if you'd choose to see, you will get a correct feel for Belgian living, specially its excellent restaurant and café culture. Though Brussels may possibly not have the star attractions of different Belgian areas, the capital has more than enough to keep visitors occupied for a couple of days with a clutch of world-class museums and art galleries, along with quirkier views like the Atomium, and some great remnants of old architecture in the old community quarter.
