History:
Exchange City is the largest hands-on education program in
the world with more than 1,000,000 students participating to date.
Created by the Learning Exchange of Kansas City, there are six Exchange City centers in the United States.
What is Exchange City?:
Exchange City is a remarkable hands-on learning experience
for Middle School students. The experience combines an exciting standards-based curriculum taught by teachers in their classroom followed by a field trip visit to a life-size, state-of-the-art city run by
middle school students.
Exchange City lets students apply and reinforce lessons learned in the classroom, in a real-life setting. Most schools experience improved test scores and increased student attendance rates when they participate.
The integrated curriculum correlates with state frameworks for Math, Language Arts, Social Studies, Economics, Technology Skills and Civics.
