The President of China, Xi JinPing, will visit Lincoln High School in Tacoma on September 23. Twenty Annie Wright Upper School students are invited to attend the event and listen to his speech.

President Xi was elected in 2013, and he’s visiting Seattle in hopes of increasing the business exchange and communication between the USA and China. His office announced his plan seven months prior to his visit to the United States. Our students are excited about this event, especially the Chinese students, who have the opportunity to make a connection to home.
