Twenty-five educators representing China’s Haidian District schools are visiting HISD schools and service facilities to observe best practices, study education methodologies and to meet district and school leadership. This is an annual trip for the delegation.

Tuesday morning, Board of Education Trustee Harvin Moore addressed the Chinese delegation at HISD’s Mandarin Chinese Language Immersion Magnet School. The team attended a day-long program that included meeting with the school administration, a campus tour and a presentation and discussion regarding the district’s Confucius Institute.

Next week the delegation will visit Lanier MS, Lamar HS, Westside HS and River Oaks ES, as well as HISD’s Food Services Department.
