MISSION VIEJO : Exchange Will Put Teacher in England
George (Jay) Wenzel, a math teacher at Mission Viejo High School, will trade places with a teacher in England for the 1990-91 school year as part of the Fulbright Teacher Exchange Program.
Wenzel travels to Lincoln, England, this month to take over for John McCann, a math teacher at Yarborough High School.
Wenzel will teach math to middle and high school students in England, while McCann will take over Wenzel’s duties at Mission Viejo High in September.
Wenzel is one of 44 California teachers participating in the program, sponsored by the United States Information Agency. A total of 450 teachers throughout the world will participate in the program this year, teaching students in 20 countries.
Teachers are selected on the basis of interviews, credentials and recommendations from other faculty members.
