Travel and Security
Ensuring the personal safety of our students as they travel abroad
has always been of utmost importance to the International Studies
office.
- The student/teacher ratio on Charlotte Country Day School summer
study trips and sister school exchanges is never more than 10:1.
- We constantly monitor the Department of State website and confer
with other risk analysis authorities to determine the political
and economic conditions of our destination countries.
- Administrators and teachers visit potential sister schools several
times before any student travel is planned. In fact, all our sister
schools have come to our attention through personal contacts,
as we seek schools that share similar values and goals as CCDS.
- Parents are encouraged to understand all that they can about
the nature of each foreign exchange or study abroad program. Several
orientation meetings are held to answer all your questions, and
group e-mails are set up to ensure all students and parents have
the information they need for a safe, educational, and fulfilling
trip.
