70 POINTS Sister School (Persuasive) Sister School programs link your high school with a high school in another country. Usually, sister schools host exchange students; sometimes, they also arrange for pen pals between schools or exchange culturally-significant gifts. In addition, both schools offer programs to learn about life in the sister country. Pick a city in another country, research potential ?sister? schools and write an essay to your student council proposing that your school become a 'sister' to a high school in that city. Be sure to give reasons why you feel this program would be beneficial to the students at your school and include information from your research about the potential ?sister? school.
