Do you want to become the CLASS OF THE MONTH in the Global Community? Then take part in the international project of the ePals Global Coalition!

Do you know a class that should be featured on ePals?  Would you like your class to be featured? Every month, ePals highlights a classroom from our community. This allows us to showcase the diversity of our global community and the uniqueness of our classrooms. If you have a classroom you would like to nominate, send them this questionnaire to complete and have them submit it to epalsinaction@epals.com.

In addition to the questionnaire, ePals asks Featured Classrooms to submit a photo of your class.  ePals would also ask that they three additional photos of their choosing including:

• A photo of students’ school lunches.
• A photo of your school building.
• A photo of what you see outside your classroom window.
• A photo from your town, city, or country.
• A photo related to a special holiday.
• A photo of a game students enjoy playing.
• A photo of a favorite food that is unique to your country.
• Any other photos you would like to share.

Please note: Before we can show your students in our Class of the Month area, you must have parental permission for their likeness to appear on our website.
