My Students

Educational travel is a key component of our new globally-focused curriculum. The opportunity to witness new cultures first hand and experience history tremendously enhances a student’s enthusiasm for learning.

Last year, we developed an educational partnership with our Sister School in Aarhus, Denmark.

The Sister Schools Program offers students the unique opportunity to internationally collaborate on educational projects, develop lasting global friendships, and cultivate understanding and appreciation for the world in which we live. Last March, twenty-six Danish students and their teachers visited our High School. During that time students lived with host buddies, attended classes and numerous events, and absorbed American culture. This year we will travel abroad with eighteen of our students to Aarhus where students will reciprocate the exchange experience. Additionally, students will spend a second week visiting France, the Netherlands, and Germany.

My Project

In order to prepare for the travel and educational experience of a lifetime, our students are conducting research and collaborating with their Danish hosts for a paramount project correlated to their travel and European cultures. We are employing library books, online resources and primary documents, conversations with Danish students and colleagues; however, having these books on-hand at any given time will prove extremely beneficial.

By donating to this project you are not only providing necessary resources to our cohort of Sister Schools students, but contributing to the success of our program as a whole.

As a supporter of the Sister Schools Program, you are committed to educating students culturally and preparing them as global citizens!
