Student Skype Exchange

My school, Saint Stephen's Episcopal School, has made global education a priority for over ten years. One of the more successful outgrowths of this global initiative is the cross-cultural Skype sessions that we conduct with classrooms in other countries such as Tanzania, China, and Honduras.

On the last day I was able to arrange a quick Skype session between our sixth grade classroom and a group of students at Excellence High School in Guelmim, Morocco. I was overjoyed with the success of this 40 minute exchange. The students sang together, asked questions of each other, and offered well wishes back and forth. We will see what sort of long-lasting connections we can make between our two schools.
