7 Student Exchange with Eu+n, Germany 2019 Dear LHS Community, My name is Arne Scholz and I am the German teacher at LHS. I have the privilege to be the trip chaperone of the 2019 high school student exchange trip with Eutin, Germany. As part of our close cooperation with our Sister City of Eutin in Germany, up to twelve high school students from the secondary schools in Lawrence visit Eutin in the summer while 12 German high school students from Eutin come to Lawrence in the fall. The American students visit Eutin for some 4 weeks in June/July and stay with the family of their exchange partner. They will go to a high school in Eutin and learn about German culture, history and language in a special class with their chaperone. They will take day trips to cities like Hamburg, Lübeck and Kiel as well as the Baltic Sea and the North Sea. The program also includes a 5-day trip to Berlin. This program is open to all high school students in Lawrence. No prior German language experience is required. In September/October the Eutin students will visit Lawrence where they will stay with their host families and enroll in the high school of their exchange partner. The German students will pick their own schedule upon arrival in Lawrence. They, too, will go on day trips to Kansas City, the Flint Hills, Topeka, etc. with their German trip chaperone. The total cost for the trip including airfare, transportation, hotel in Berlin and food is about $1700. Need-based scholarships are available. There will be an informational meeting at Lawrence High School, room 305 (in the Annex), on Thursday, 8 November at 7pm. Please feel free to contact me via at ascholz@usd497.org if you have questions. I m looking forward to meeting you soon. Kind regards, Arne Scholz
