German Dept. Sponsors Exchange Student
In addition to our school's more traditional exchange programs, such as AFS (American Field Service) and Rotary, Bellaire's own German department offers its own exchange, sponsored by Mr. Michael Rossow, German teacher at Bellaire.
This program is a four-week home-to-home exchange called FRIENDSHIP CONNECTION in which Bellaire German students are matched with like-students in Germany. The students from Germany visit in the spring, stay with their Bellaire partners and attend Bellaire for four weeks. In summer, the roles are reversed: the Bellaire students go to Germany for four weeks, residing with their partners and attending school there. The program is extremely reasonable in price (only $1800 for four weeks) and provides an excellent language/cultural immersion opportunity for all. Currently three Bellaire students, Martin Sirakov and Angela Vantreese, together with her brother Titus, are hosting partners from central Germany until April 25th, namely Nils Gromes and Tilo Schütz, respectively.
