A New Opportunity to Learn: A Plethora of New Faces Come and Gone

Calvin Christian High School has had the opportunity to host foreign exchange students for two weeks. Over the two weeks, they stayed with host families who attended the school and they had the opportunity to Minneapolis and St. Paul. During school they would often attend the classes and see what the school was like. This was possible because they had already learned about English, so they were able to communicate well, and the students were willing to be patient and cooperate.

It was a good experience for everyone involved, and everyone got to experience a new culture, whether by hosting or visiting. The students have now continued to other parts of the U.S., and thanks to the effort of all involved hopefully their experience will be remembered well. We might even see some of them again if they choose to come to our school, though wherever they go we hope the best for them.
