KINGSTON, Mass. - Nov. 9, 2018 - PRLog -- Sacred Heart School (www.sacredheartkingston.com), a private, Catholic, co-educational school for students in preschool through grade 12, is delighted to announce its partnership with Zhejiang Fuyang School, a K-12 school located in a suburb of Hangzhou, China.

A delegation of administrators and teachers from Zhejiang Fuyang School, which is owned by Zhejiang Fuzhong Education Group, recently visited Sacred Heart to tour the Kingston campus and experience a western style classroom first-hand.  The visit culminated with the signing of a formal contract of partnership.

As such, a select group of students at Zhejiang Fuyang High School will be able to enroll in a special dual diploma program that allows them to complete Sacred Heart's curriculum while remaining in their home country school.  The Chinese students will graduate high school with two certificates – a traditional diploma from Zhejiang High School and one from Sacred Heart.

The program serves as a next generation model for future international student partnerships to allow students in both China and the United States access to a more global perspective of learning.

"This partnership will provide us with an additional resource toward fulfilling our mission to broaden students' awareness of other country's cultures and educational viewpoints," said Laura Parry, Director of Global Education at Sacred Heart School, noting that "in the future we hope to invite the Chinese students to attend a summer camp at Sacred Heart focused on cultural competency and global understanding."
