A recent survey found that nearly one of six Americans have never traveled outside of their home state. Sadly, many school-aged children have never ventured outside of their own city, and in many cases outside of their own neighborhood.
Tonight, we will hear from three individuals who are trying to change that by providing students with real-world learning experiences that help to develop global awareness.
Amy Williams, Global Studies Coordinator at Fairfield Elementary School in Caddo Parish
Rachel Ryan, English Teacher at Parkway High School in Bossier Parish
Mark Miller, Dean of Students at Centenary College
