Oberburgermeister Exner
Oberburgermeister Achim Exner was the mayor of Wiesbaden . He extended his hand of German American friendship. Our students were invited by our host city, Wiesbaden, and Herr Exner to see two wonderful plays, "Max and Moritz" and "Pinocchio". We will always be grateful to him for supporting our school and sharing the German culture with us.

A Government Representative
A government official came to our school to help us celebrate a Medieval Festival. This shows how much support our city has given us.

Thank you, Wiesbaden!!
