Last but certainly not least is Emma Wohlschläger, a junior from Osnabrück, Germany.
“I came to the USA because I heard many interesting, and wonderful things about this country, and it was my biggest wish to travel to this country since I was a child,” said Wohlschläger.
The EHS junior will live with a host family for the duration of the school year, and they will help her to assimilate into the new culture. “The biggest change for me is my ‘new’ family, and my new school at this time. I live in a host family with two younger sisters. My host family is wonderful, they help me very much, and I am very glad to stay with them!” Wohlschläger said.
One thing that Wohlschläger already loves about EHS is the athletics, and the student participation and excitement that surround them. “I like that sports are a big part of the school life. In Germany, sports don’t play such an important role at school,” said Wohlschläger.
Be sure to give her a nice “willkommen” (welcome) to Edina!
