Educators Visit CVESD From Across The Globe To Learn About Our Instructional Program

Heritage Elementary and Chula Vista Learning Community Charter schools recently hosted a Rotary International Group Study Exchange team from Ecuador, part of the  group’s tour of the Chula Vista and San Ysidro school districts. 

In addition to Heritage and CVLCC, the group also visited the Exercise the Dream program at the Olympic Training Center, learning about efforts to improve student health and fitness. The educators were impressed by the depth of students’ subject knowledge and by the abundance of teaching materials in every classrooms. Among their observations: our public schools have so many more resources than their top private schools.

Site visits are becoming increasingly common. The District recently hosted 10 visitors from the Kamehameha Schools in Honolulu, Hawaii. The purpose of their visit was to view our instructional program in mathematics. They visited Harborside, Olympic View, and Otay. They appreciated the opportunity to visit the three schools and observe their different pathways in instructional delivery.
