II - SCHOOL COORDINATOR

The most important person in a school's ISSE program is the school's ISSE coordinator. The Coordinator may be the principal, a teacher, or an interested parent. She/he must keep track of all aspects of the program: getting a partner school through the ISSE International Office, making arrangements with the partner school, selection of children (and the Adult) who will Visit and Host, planning with all faculty and host families, etc... The last page of this manual contains a checklist of the main items which need to be done. It is a good idea to have one or more ISSE Committees working on various aspects of the planning. Teachers, parents, former Adult chaperones, and former student participants might be on the committees.
