Exchange Students

We are currently hosting two exchange students.

Isabell Krause from Germany, has been here since last July and Santiago Andres Tonelli from Argentina joined us recently. They will spend a year here. We are enjoying these new additions to our school population and know that they bring a richness to the school culture. We hope that they will participate in all of the activities that they can and take back many memories and friendships.
