International Education Week: Fostering Global Citizenship and Respect
Celebrate the eighth annual International Education Week, November 12-16, 2007, a joint initiative of the U.S. Department of Education and the U.S. Department of State. This year’s theme, International Education: Fostering Global Citizenship and Respect, recognizes the importance of teaching our students to be responsible and respectful world citizens.
We can teach students to be active and informed international citizens by studying the history, culture, and languages of other countries. Our students can gain invaluable insights into how others live and learn important lessons about respecting fellow citizens of the world.
