The American School in
Florida, Pompano Beach High School (PBHS), and Polish school in Krakow, VIII Prywatne
Akademickie Liceum Ogólnokształcące, IB World School 006265 began a partnership
in December of 2014 during Pompano Beach High School's International Summit.
For 10 days, Principal Professor Jerzy Waligora, Anna Krzeminska-Kaczyńska and
12 students from Krakow were hosted by PBHS families, community members, and
school organizations. Throughout the week the students exchanged ideas on
the focus of education, culture, and economics. They were able to tour
places such as Everglades National Park, Walt Disney World, Miami Beach, Fort
Lauderdale Intercoastal, Pompano Beach, and others. This initial exchange began
lasting relationships between the students, faculty, staff, and the two
schools.
