Update from our Exchange Student

We recently received this from a former exchange student, Michelle:

Hi everyone! I just want to share good news with you all about what I had been doing over the past few weeks! I participated in a English Drama Competition held by my school and our show won the first place! I also got the best leading actress award!

I have to say, if I hadn't learned all this in US, I wouldn't have won it~ so grateful!

Below are some pictures :)
