Students in Hall County Schools and students at a private school in Guanajuato, Mexico, may not have much in common. But they may soon have more. Representatives from the Academia Internacional of San Miguel de Allende, a private dual immersion school for students from pre-K through 12th grade in central Mexico, and from the Universidad Pedagógica Nacional in Guanajuato, Mexico, visited Hall County this week to discuss a possible teacher-exchange program.
