Motivating and preparing all students to reach their greatest potential
We're All in this Together Global Collaboration!
Siuslaw High School students are connecting with students in Monquegua, Peru and St. Louis Missouri to learn about language, culture, sustainability, and create digital multi-genre pieces together! This is part of the Fulbright Teachers for Global Classrooms Collaboration led by our K-12 District Teacher Librarian, Jennifer McKenzie.
