TEMPE SISTER CITY EDUCATOR
EXCHANGE PROGRAM
If you are a teacher interested
in the 2007 Educator Exchange through Tempe Sister Cities,
please download and submit the form at the link on the
bottom of this page.
The objective of this program is to provide an opportunity
for TUHSD and TD#3 educators to develop professional
educational growth and understanding among the people of
Regensburg, Germany, Zhenjiang, China, or Lower Hutt, New
Zealand, through a family living and school teaching
experience. Your family needs to be supportive of your
participation and time commitment to this educator
exchange.
This is a professional educator exchange and is NOT for
independent travel/activities before or after the educator
exchange. As a participant in the exchange, understand that
this program does in no way include a spouse, family
member(s), or friend(s) for this foreign travel. Chosen
educators will be expected to adhere to the educator
exchange travel date calendar.
EDUCATOR’S TIME COMMITMENT
The actual exchange trip for the TUHSD and TD#3 educators
to Germany, China, and New Zealand will be three weeks in
the summer of 2008 (tentatively June); however, the travel
dates are still to be determined. It is expected that the
educators will attend orientation meetings before the
departure date, participate in Sister City activities, give
talks about the exchange experience, and generally help
plan and promote the exchange program. It is imperative
that the selected educators attend these get togethers
BEFORE leaving for Germany, China, or New Zealand. This
needs to be a PRIORITY! Failure to do so may result in
altering the final group going to Germany, China, or New
Zealand
