Siheung also has more educational programs linked to the local community: first being the "Youth International Exchange Program"; Siheung has the "From Siheung to the world! Youth Planning Training" program in which teenagers plan and prepare schedules for their chosen countries by forming teams on their own and then go abroad for research training; then there is the "Siheung Dream Tree, To the world! Overseas Visit Experience" program in which children receive prior education through various subjects such as culture and art, history and embark on field trips. The "Overseas Visit Experience" program is based on the idea that with new friends, teenagers can learn and understand difficult subjects through various self-directed learning methods. Lastly, Siheung has a 'sister school' project, aiming to expand international exchange activities by supporting a partnership project between a school in Siheung and a foreign school. The biggest feature is that low-income families who are unable to get a chance to visit overseas due to financial difficulties are given opportunities to participate in international exchange activities. All hopeful schools in the region receive applications throughout the year.
