[quote=Anonymous]I don’t have a lot of regrets but one of my biggest was not studying abroad in college. MV 5th graders are heading out to Puerto Rico next week. Love this that some kids get the immersion experience as early as late elementary in DC. It’s not just being immersed in the language and communicating in the language, but much more. It’s the cultural experience, interacting with local students and people, trying new ethnic foods, seeing how people live outside of the US. This can foster more of a sense of empathy towards others not like you, something we badly need in these challenging times. [/quote]
