A representative from Baron Hill's office, Jeanette Mount,
presented JCD High School Spanish Teacher William Fogle
with a flag that was flown over the nation's capitol in
honor of the Spanish exchange student's visit last week
to Osgood. Evelyne Hermoso, teacher at IES JP Ferreter
in Spain, holds a certificate that was also presented.
The 20 students enjoyed their visit at JCD, as they stayed
with various families in the community and went to school
in America to see how things are done. The exchange program
is the brain child of Fogle and Hermoso, who are both
progressive teachers, wanting students to learn first
hand knowledge. The students enjoyed a variety of activities
while visiting at JCD. They enjoyed a private tour of
the State House in Indianapolis by Cathy Blizer, director
of International Education for the Indiana Department
of Education, an impromptu talent show at the Damm Theatre
in Osgood, and a farewell party at the home of Spencer
Huffmeyer, just to name a few activities outside of school.
