Meet U.S. Teens: A Visit to Panzerkaserne and Stuttgart High School

We are excited to offer a special program in cooperation with the U.S. Army Garrison (USAG) Stuttgart and Stuttgart High School: German school classes (grade 8 and above) will have the opportunity to visit the U.S. military base Panzerkaserne in Böblingen and experience American life in Stuttgart up close.

During their visit, students will explore the base with a guided tour offering a look behind the scenes of everyday life on a U.S. Army installation. The highlight of the day is a visit to Stuttgart High School, where students will meet American teenagers. From typical American features like hallway lockers to sports fields and the school’s cafeteria, students will gain authentic insights into a different school culture – and discover both surprising differences and unexpected similarities.

This program gives students the chance to engage directly with native speakers, practice their English in real conversations, and build cultural understanding through personal exchange. It offers a unique way to gain insights into American life here in Germany and is a valuable addition to any curriculum focused on language, culture, and transatlantic relations.

Please note: 
Transportation to and from the Panzerkaserne must be organized and covered by the school (please note that public transport to the barracks is limited).
Application process: Teachers can apply by the respective deadline with their class for an upcoming date. Only one school class can participate per date. The class will be selected at random from all applicants.
