For many years, the OCESS ran a student exchange with its sister program in Lexington, South Carolina, run out of Lexington High School (LHS). Two or three students from each program were sent to participate in the mission run by the other. Both missions were run simultaneously, usually with some form of continuous communication between the two mission control sites (via webcam, for example).
Unfortunately, the last exchange took place in 1999. The following year saw the collapse of the LHS program when its teacher-advisor transferred to a different school, and the student membership was unable to continue on its own.
Exchanges took place in the following years: 1995-1996, 1996-1997, 1998-1999.
