Sending Educators to Japan (SET-J)

About the program

Organizers: lawrence.setj@gmail.com

“Sending Educators To Japan” (SET-J) is a PTO program that offers Lawrence school educators an opportunity to participate in a short trip to Japan.  The program has been sending a selected Lawrence School teacher to Japan each year since 2002. Funding for the trip is provided by the Lawrence PTO.

Teachers who have participated in this program were able to observe the Japanese educational system in various settings and experience Japanese culture firsthand.  Upon returning, they  have shared their experiences and discoveries with the Lawrence community, thus giving our community a glimpse into another society as well.

We know that this experience has been enriching for the teachers who have made the trip, and believe that colleagues, students and community members back at Lawrence have benefited from it too.
