A local art teacher, Charlene Tevis, from Wessendorff Middle School has been chosen to participate in the East-West Center’s prestigious Fulbright-Hays Group Projects Abroad Program this summer. Tevis is famous for taking her stuffed Froggy on all her travels, which have included Washington, D.C. and The Great Wall of China, and bringing pictures of Froggy in these places back to her classroom to share and help educate her students on the world.
Tevis has achieved much for Wessendorff in her tenure there, including securing $60,000 in an equipment grant from Samsung that arrived on an 18-wheeler to the more than excited school.
The East-West Center is located in Honolulu, Hawaii, and for the last fifty years has been dedicated to improving relations between the USA and pacific countries and educating participants in the differing cultures. Find more information on the center at EastWestCenter.org/education.
