The US Peace Corps in Georgia invites motivated public schools to collaborate with the Peace Corps Education Program.

Peace Corps volunteers have been successfully implementing education projects in the regions of Georgia for nineteen years. The schools selected in the competition will work with the American English Teacher for the 2020-2022 academic years to improve the general quality of the English language.

The competition is open to public schools in the following regions: Kakheti (except villages north of Akhmeta), Mtskheta-Mtianeti (except Stepantsminda and villages north of it), Kvemo Kartli, Shida Kartli, Samtskhe-Javakheti, Adjara, Guria, Imereti, Samegrelo, Racha-Lechkhumi and Svaneti. Applications will not be considered from villages and towns within 5 km of the administrative boundary line.

If your school is in the above-mentioned region, and you are interested in working with a volunteer program in the 2020-2022 academic year, please read the newsletter, fill out a volunteer application form with host family, and report to the Peace Corps office on 29a Vazha-Pshavela Avenue, Tbilisi, 0160, or email education@ge.peacecorps.gov

A volunteer request form and information supplement can be obtained from the Peace Corps office or from the educational resource centers. Volunteer application forms can also be downloaded from the Peace Corps website at: https://www.peacecorps.gov/georgia/ask-for-a-volunteer/

The deadline for applying for a school-based volunteer application is October 21, 2019.
