Pen Pals 2027

The Project Success Pen Pal program is an exciting opportunity to nurture ongoing international dialogue and understanding among students. Over a span of 12 weeks, participants will engage in correspondence with international students, getting a chance to explore and learn about a different country, culture, and its people.

What to Expect

Global Connections

Students will be paired with pen pals of a similar age from our partner school in Oaxaca, Mexico.   

Exchange of Communication

Communication can take various forms, such as letters, emails, audio, or video recordings. Each student will send and receive three correspondences, alternating with their pen pals. 

Cultural Exploration

Through dialogue, you will have the opportunity to learn about your pen pal, their background, and way of life while reflecting on your own.

Program Dates

• We will have an online orientation for all our MPS Pen Pals on Tuesday, January 5 at 6:00 pm.
• The first correspondence will start the week of January 11th and continue through the week of March 15th.
• A celebratory Zoom Meet & Greet will wrap up the program after the last correspondence.
• All communication will be coordinated between the partner teacher at your pen pal’s school and Dom Navarre, Expeditions Program Coordinator at Project Success.
