Acknowledgements

On behalf of Mr Samba Guissé , Regional Coordinator of World-Links West Africa, I thank all the people who spent their money ,their time for me (time is money!).Those people who welcomed me with enthusiasm and helped try to connect World-Links Senegal with students and teachers in St.Louis (Mo).
As we share the same goal which is the improvement of the education of our kids and offering them something new to open them to the world and share other values and customs, I hope that this is going to be a profitable collaboration.
To all of you I send my heartfelt thanks.
Thank you Rosalynde and Joyce for coordinating all that in such a short time!
Thank you Georgia for your hearty welcome at Metro HS, I enjoyed the tour.
Thank you ,dear colleagues for having given some of your precious time after a hard day at school

Thank you, students of Roosevelt and Metro H.S for being so nice.
Thank you, Diane (GWP) for facilitating the meeting with Elyse co-director of the National Writing Project.
