Four visiting students from Shanghai, China, spent their first day at Milton touring the campus, meeting with Lori Dow in the Admission Office, and having lunch with Head of School Todd Bland. The students attend the No. 2 High School of East China Normal University and are staying with student host families for their two-week visit.
The exchange program, in its second year, was organized by Shimin Zhou, a modern languages faculty member. Other plans include visits to Boston sites, such as the M.I.T. Museum and Robotics Workshop, the Institute of Contemporary Art, and Faneuil Hall. The students will also tour the campuses of Boston University and Harvard University and spend time attending classes with their student hosts.
In late spring, four Milton students will travel to Shanghai and shadow their counterparts during their classes and school activities, attend a variety of events, and explore the exciting historical and cultural sites in the vicinity of Shanghai.
