Thanks for all of your support!

​Our trip is inching closer and closer, and we are getting more and more excited!  But we have some work to do first...

There will be a student-only meeting next Tuesday, March 13th in room 105 at 7:30am.  We will reflect on our Denmark friends' visit, talk about what gift(s) to bring, and collect the health form (attached). Please have the attached health form completed for Tuesday's meeting.

There will also be a final Parent/Family Meeting April 12th at 6pm at CVU in room 105.  Katherine, Garett, and I will talk about all of the last minute details and answer any pressing questions.  We hope you can all come.

We just had a wonderful visit with our new friends from Denmark. Last Friday we all explored downtown Burlington and Church Street while trying to brave the cold. The weekend was filled with family fun while our visitors stayed with their new families. Tuesday night we had a Pot Luck Dinner at the school and then found out school was cancelled for the next day!  After the dinner many of us watched the CVU Men's Basketball team beat South Burlington. Wednesday the kids huh out with their new families during the snow day.  Some skied, some watched movies, some just hung out. Then Thursday we had a quick breakfast goodbye before the visitors flew back home.  We can't wait for April!

Some of our travelers have asked the question: "When are the Danes coming?"

Our visitors from abroad are arriving in Burlington on the evening of February 1st (Thursday) and then they will be leaving on February 8th (Thursday).
Friday, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday the Danish students will be in school all day. There will be some planned but optional activities for Monday - Wednesday evenings. The host families will be responsible for the weekend and the evenings.

As we get closer we will put together a more definitive plan and calendar. Please contact us for any questions or concerns.

And don't forget about the parent /student meeting Thursday, January 25th at 6pm at CVU in room 105.  We will be discussing the logistics of hosting our Denmark visitors and can answer any questions or concerns you may have.
