In an effort to learn more about the US educational system, a delegation from the Turkmenistan Youth & Civic Values Foundation will visit Mr Trudeau's geography classes on Tues, Ap 17.

The group, including an interpreter, will tour the campus and eat lunch in the cafeteria.

Their visit is being coordinated by Shreveport sociologist Sarah Lange. See the foundation web site and a Lange video about Turkmen people at http://www.tycvf.org/.
