We started connecting schools in 2014, when CCC hosted its first connection between two schools in Cuzco, Peru, and Boston, Massachusetts. 9th and 10th-grade students at Ausangate Bilingual School in Cuzco were connected with 7th-grade students at W.S. Parker Middle School Reading in Boston.
That same year, we formed a connection between 4th and 5th-grade students at The International School Nido De Aguilas in Santiago, Chile, and 4th and 5th-grade students at Wilton Manors Elementary in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.
We continued to grow our International Network in 2015, when honors Spanish classes at Parkland High School in Allentown, Pennsylvania connected with 9th and 10th-grade students in Centro Educativo Jorge DeBravo in Turrialba, Costa Rica.
In 2016, a new group of 7th-grade students at W.S. Parker Middle School Reading in Boston, Massachusetts connected with 7th, 8th, and 9th-grade students in Centro Educativo Jorge DeBravo in Turrialba, Costa Rica.
Most recently, 5th-grade students at Centro Educativo Jorge DeBravo in Turrialba, Costa Rica wrote handwritten letters and created videos to share with indigenous students in Alto Pacuare, Costa Rica at Escuela Yoldi Kicha.
