The American Exchange is something Carrigaline Community School has run for numerous of years, but now has been cancelled. 

This program was very influential, with students making lasting connections with the American students from Fairport. Along with this, the students developed a sense of responsibility, with them having to manage money abroad, navigate through airports without their parents, and be well-mannered throughout the whole experience. 

This petition is to aid the continuation of this incredible education program, not only for the current Transition Year students, but the students who will come after them.
