[Peace Corps news] Connecting US and foreign students

Amy Clark of the World Wise Schools' program at Peace Corps headquarters passed along the following message:

If you are a teacher or know of an enthusiastic person in an educational organization, the Coverdell World Wise Schools program at the Peace Corps offers a unique opportunity to connect with a currently serving PCV. The Correspondence Match program is a vibrant two-year exchange of ideas, stories, pictures, and artifacts that helps U.S. students in the classroom learn about the people, geography, environment, and culture of the world from the direct experience of Volunteers living in other countries. Whatever the grade level, area of expertise, or geographic preference of the U.S. educator, there is a Peace Corps Volunteer who is ready to communicate with your students. To enroll, please visit www.peacecorps.gov/wws/correspond/
